Question

State 'True' or 'False'.

The credit balance of revaluation account means loss on revaluation account.

Options

  • True

  • False

MCQ
True or False

Solution

This statement is False.

Explanation: 

The revaluation account is nominal in nature. All losses and expenses are debited, and all profits and earnings are credited, according to the rules of nominal accounting. Therefore, these guidelines will apply to the revaluation account. In context with this, a debit balance of such a nature is seen as a loss on revaluation and a credit balance as a profit on revaluation.
