NOTE

PARTNERSHIP ACCOUNT

A Revaluation Account is outlined to determine net profit or loss on

revaluation of assets and liabilities and including those items that are

unrecorded into books. Revaluation account is prepared at the time of

admission of a new partner or in case of death or retirement of a partner.

The Revaluation profit or loss is transferred to the capital a/c of all the

partners comprising deceased or retiring partners in their old profit sharing

ratio (PSR).

 

What is Revaluation of Assets and Reassessment of Liabilities?

During the admission of a new partner, it is always better to determine

whether the assets of the enterprise are mentioned in the books at their

current values. If the assets are overstated or understated, these are to be

revalued.

Few points that explain why revaluation of assets and reassessment of

liabilities are important.

  • Reassessment of liabilities is done so that the liabilities are recorded in the books at their appropriate values.
  • Now and then, there may also be some assets and liabilities of the enterprise that stay unnoticed and unrecorded. These also have to be added into the books of the enterprise. For this cause the enterprise has to outline the Revaluation Account.
  • The profit or loss on revaluation of each asset and liability is moved to this A/c and its balance is transferred to the capital account of the old partners in their old profit-sharing ratio.
  • To put it in other words, the revaluation A/c is credited with the rise in the value of each asset and decrease in its liabilities; it is a profit and is debited with a decrease in the merit of assets and increase in its liabilities is debited to revaluation A/c, it is a loss. Correspondingly, unrecorded liabilities are debited and unrecorded assets are credited to the revaluation account.
  • If the revaluation A/c finally displays a credit (cr.) balance then, it stipulates net profit and if there is a debit balance then it stipulates net loss. Which will be later transferred to the capital account of the old partners in the old ratio

 

JOURNAL ENTRIES

In the journal entries of revaluation of assets, we record all changes in the

value of fixed assets. As per the cost concept, we have no right to record

increase or decrease in the value of fixed asset. It should be kept on its

historical book cost value. Now, time is going fast. All old concepts of

accounting are being modified on

the basis of revaluation concept. As per new concept, our all assets should

be updated. An investor who check our financial statement should not

mislead by providing old information in the statements. Updated

information means, if any asset's value is decreased due to impairment,

our balance sheet should cut the same loss from that specific loss. If our

investments like shares and stock have increment, it should be recorded in

our financial statements.

Now, all these things can be possible with journal entries of revaluation of

assets.

(1) For an increase in the value of an asset: 

Asset A/c

Dr.

To Revaluation a/c

 

 

Revaluation Account   Debit

Fixed Assets Account Credit 

(2)For a decrease in the value of a liability:

Liability A/c

Dr.

To Revaluation a/c

 

(3)For a decrease in the value of an asset:

Revaluation A/c

Dr.

To Asset a/c

 

(4) For an increase in the value of a liability:

Revaluation A/c

Dr.

To  Liability a/c

 

  (5)For an unrecorded asset:

Asset A/c

Dr.

To  Unrecorded asset a/c

 

(6)For an unrecorded liability:

Revaluation A/c

Dr.

To  Unrecorded Liability a/c

 

(7)The profit on revaluations will be transferred to old partners’ capital accounts in the old profit sharing ratio:

Revaluation A/c

Dr.

To  Old partners Capital a/c’s

 

(8)The loss on revaluations will be transferred to old partners’ capital accounts in the old profit sharing ratio:

Old partners Capital a/c’s

Dr.

To  Revaluation A/c

 

 

Example:

Assume on December 31, 2011 the company intends to switch to

revaluation concept and carries out a revaluation exercise which estimates

the fair value of the building to be $200,000 as at December 31, 2011. The

book value at the date is $150,000 and revalued amount is $200,000 so an

upward adjustment of $50,000 is required to building account. It is recorded

through the following journal entry:

1 .For recording the revaluation surplus  on the building. 

Building Account Debit  50,000

Revaluation Account Credit         50,000

  1. For transferring the revaluation surplus to the equity share capital. 

Revaluation Account Debit 50,000

Equity Share Capital Account Credit 50,000

If we do not open the revaluation account, we can directly debit the asset

account and credit the equity share capital account in case of any surplus.

For example, if we there is surplus of $ 1,00,000 in the value of shares in

which we have invested. We can easily pass the journal entry of share

investment account Dr. to Equity share capital account Cr.

If there is any decrease in fixed asset, we can also debit the equity share

capital account and credit  the asset account.

 

The journal entries recorded for revaluation of assets and reassessment of liabilities are as follows:
