Solution

To revalue the building to fair value at 30 June 20X1 in accordance with the requirements of AASB 116 Property, Plant and Equipment, you would need to make the following journal entry:

Step 1: Determine the amount of revaluation The building's carrying amount is 900,000(900,000 (1,200,000 - 300,000)andthefairvalueis300,000) and the fair value is 1,000,000. Therefore, the revaluation amount is 100,000(100,000 (1,000,000 - $900,000).

Step 2: Record the revaluation The journal entry to record the revaluation would be:

Debit: Building (Asset) 100,000Credit:RevaluationSurplus(Equity)100,000 Credit: Revaluation Surplus (Equity) 100,000

This entry increases the value of the building asset to its fair value and records the increase in equity as a revaluation surplus.

Please note that the previous downward revaluation of $100,000 does not affect the current revaluation, as under AASB 116, each revaluation is treated independently.
