How do I post a Revaluation and Disposal of an Asset on a Charity?
Resolution
Example:
An asset held within the General (Un-Restricted) Fund has increased in value. In the following year the asset has been disposed of for a gain (Profit).
A new Fund will need to be created as a Revalutaion Reserve Fund.
Select:
Edit | Funds | New
Enter the Fund ID, Fund Name and Fund Type (this would match the Fund Type where the Asset is located e.g. Un-Restricted)
Postings will then need to be made to the NEW Fund as follows:
Select:
Posting | Post/Select
Account Fund
512-566/5 (Dr) Revaluation
968/5 (Cr) Revaluation
When disposing of an asset, it is advised to first post a Transfer between Funds to re-locate the balance of revaluation to the fund where the asset is held, following which a disposal of the asset can be posted.
Transfer:
Account Fund
512-566/1 (Cr) Revaluation
968/11 (Dr) Revaluation
512-566/1 (Dr) General
966/11 (Cr) General
Disposal:
Account Fund
512-566/3 (Cr) General
57 (Gain) (Dr) General
512-566/23 (Dr) General
57 (Gain) (Cr) General
Proceeds of Disposal:
Account Fund
692 (Bank) (Dr) General
57 (Gain) (Cr) General
Gain/Loss on Sale of Asset (See ICHA/UCHA Chart):
Group
Gain = 32
Loss = 46, 69, 86, 107, 137, 156, 187, 207, 227, 247, 267, 287, 307 and 327
Note: The example above would assume that the Asset has NOT been disposed of in the same year of revaluation.
