Say a company revalues it's assets and all that, now 6 months later they sell an asset whick was bought for 400000 and has a book value of 36000 do you transfare the balance in the provision for depreciation to the revaluation reserve and the 4000 from the asset to the disposal or does the fact that you revalued mess it up?

Any help would be great, ta.

Argh jesus I hated revaluation/depreciation so much. They were by far my most feared questions in the entire exam, no matter how many times I did them I could never do the next one without looking over previous examples!

To answer your question, I dont have a clue. Try looking over previous questions
