In: Accounting
Moon Inc., a publicly listed company, has a building
with an initial cost of $400,000. At December 31, 2020, the date of
revaluation, accumulated depreciation amounted to $110,000. The
fair value of the building, by comparing it with transactions
involving similar assets, is assessed to be $330,000. Prepare the
journal entries to revalue the building under the revaluation model
using:
the asset adjustment (direct) method
the proportionate method
Use the information from 1 above. On January 5, 2021,
Moon sold the building for $325,000 cash. Prepare the journal
entries to record the sale of the building after having
used
the cost model
the revaluation model using the asset adjustment
method
the revaluation model using the proportionate
method.
Would a potential investor prefer Moon Inc. use the
asset adjustment method or the proportionate method to apply the
revaluation model, why?
