Previously, the land was accounted for at its cost. However, on 30 June 2023, the company's manager made a decision to switch the method of measuring the land's value from the cost model to the revaluation model. As a result, the land's value was revalued upwards to $152,000 (ignore income tax implications for this transaction). Before this revaluation, there had been no surplus from revaluation recognised. The valuation process was carried out by Jim's Valuation Pty Ltd, a registered valuer.
