yar friends

plz guide me thorugh this

accounitng period ends on 31st dec

on 1 jan asset costs 100,000 and depreciation charged on straight line basis 10%

on 1 july asset cost after revaluation is 150,000

how could the depriciation be charged????

Either on revalued cost for the whole year???? OR 6 month depriciation on original cost and 6 month on revalued amount????????

plz answer in the light of IAS 16

6 month depriciation on original cost and 6 month on revalued amount
is the correct answer. Therefore total Dep. is 10000+15000=25000

Cheers

yeah under IAS 16, asset is carried at a revalued amount, being its fair value at the date of revaluation less subsequent depreciation, provided that fair value can be measured reliable.

So it means 6 month dep on cost and 6 month on revalued amount.
