Author	Topic: IFRS Revaluation and Impairment Reversals
Ross806 @2014-06-12 07:27:53	Question: These two statements seem contradictory: 1. Any increase in excess of the reversal amount will not be recognised in the income statement but will be recorded directly to equity in revaluation surplus account. 2. IFRS does not permit revaluation to the recoverable amount if the recoverable amount exceeds the previous carrying amount. Can someone explain what I am missing here? Much appreciated.

Question:

These two statements seem contradictory:

1. Any increase in excess of the reversal amount will not be recognised in the income statement but will be recorded directly to equity in revaluation surplus account.

2. IFRS does not permit revaluation to the recoverable amount if the recoverable amount exceeds the previous carrying amount.

Can someone explain what I am missing here?

Much appreciated.
