      Yes, sure! But lets us first understand what a revaluation account is.

      A revaluation account is prepared to recognise the change in the book value of assets and liabilities of an entity. These changes happen when assets and liabilities are revalued to present their fair value.

      It is a nominal account because it represents gain or loss in value of assets and liabilities. However such gain or loss is unrealised because the assets and liabilities are not sold or discharged.

      After revaluation of assets and liabilities, the balance of the revaluation account can be debit or credit. The debit balance means ‘loss on revaluation’ and credit balance means ‘gain on revaluation’.

      The balance of revaluation is transferred to the capital account.

      Journal Entries related to Revaluation Account

       1. Increase in value of an asset upon revaluation:

      Asset A/c Dr. Amt
      To Revaluation A/c Cr. Amt
      (Being asset value increased upon revaluation)

      2. Decrease in value of an asset upon revaluation:

      Revaluation A/c Dr. Amt
      To Asset A/c Cr. Amt
      (Being asset value decreased upon revaluation)

      3. Increase in value of liabilities upon revaluation:

      Revaluation A/c Dr. Amt
      To Liabilities A/c Cr. Amt
      (Being liabilities value increased upon revaluation)

      4. Decrease in value of liabilities upon revaluation:

      Liabilities A/c Dr. Amt
      To Revaluation A/c Cr. Amt
      (Being liabilities value decreased upon revaluation)

      5. Transfer or distribution of the balance of revaluation account

      Revaluation A/c Dr. Amt
      To Capital/ Partners’ capital  A/c Cr. Amt
      (Being profit on revaluation transferred to capital account.

      or

      Capital/ Partners’ capital  A/c Dr. Amt
      To Revaluation A/c Cr. Amt
      (Being loss on revaluation transferred to capital account.

      Numerical example

      P, Q and R are partners of the firm ‘PQR Trading’. They share profits and losses in the ratio 3:2:1. On 1st May 20X1, they decided to admit S for 1/6th share in profits and losses of the firm. Upon the revaluation:

      • Plant and machinery increased from Rs 1,20,000 to Rs. 1,30,000
      • The stock decreased by Rs 5000
      • Debtors and creditors both decreased by Rs 4,000 and Rs 6,000 respectively.
      • Furniture decreased from Rs 25,000 to Rs 10,000
      • Land increased by Rs 40,000.

      Let’s prepare the revaluation account.
