    Dear Tutors,
    Please help me explain Note 2 below, I do not know the effect of this note to the question because without this note, I can still calculate all amounts question required (eg: Addition of NCA, Depreciation chare):
    “The revaluation surplus arose from the revaluation of some land that was not being depreciated”

    This is the full question without their figures:

    “The following information is available for Sioux, a limited liability company:
    Statements of financial position for 2 years X4 and X3 (with many figures I can not type here)

    Non-current assets
    Cost or valuation
    Accumulated depreciation
    Carrying value
    Current assets
    Inventories
    Receivables
    Cash at bank

    Equity and liabilities
    Capital and reserves
    Ordinary share capital
    Revaluation surplus
    Retained earnings
    Non-current liabilities
    10% Loan notes
    Current liabilities
    Trade payables
    Income tax

    Summarised statement of profit or loss for the year ended 31 December 20X4

    Profit from operations 2,650
    Finance cost (loan note interest) (300)

    Income tax expense (700)
    Net profit for the year 1,650

    Notes
    1/ During the year non-current assets which had cost $800,000, with a carrying value of $350,000, were sold for $500,000.
    2/ The revaluation surplus arose from the revaluation of some land that was not being depreciated.
    3/ The 20X3 income tax liability was settled at the amount provided for at 31 December 20X3.
    4/ The additional loan notes were issued on 1 January 20X4. Interest was paid on 30 June 20X4 and 31 December 20X4.
    5/ Dividends paid during the year amounted to $750,000.

    Required

    Prepare the company’s statement of cash flows for the year ended 31 December 20X4, using the indirect
    method, adopting the format in IAS 7 Statement of cash flows. (15 marks)”

    Thank you so much.

    No – you could not have done it without that information.

    If the land had been depreciated, then when it was revalued the cost would be increased and the accumulated depreciation on it would be removed. This would effect the balance on the accumulated depreciation account at the end of the year.
