    I’ve had a few requests for April/May Study Groups…March will be here before you know it.

    In order to take an early April exam, you should begin studying…now. 🙂

    Hi everyone – Does speed pick up when these questions? I know I am doing my first pass, but the home works are taking me way too long. Thoughts?

    I have gotten faster now…I guess it depends on the individual person though because some people are just fast quizzers.

    I guess no one's quizzing tonight…I will go drown myself in WTB…

    jrosen92770, yes but when you practice, you see how to get to the answers faster…I hope I'm doing this cause last time, the exam was brutal for me.

    stoleway, is it B?

    I think I'm wrong…looked this up, is it D?

    I think it's D. Don't they have to revalue at the end of the reporting period?

    MBA,CMA,CPA, CFF?, ABV?

    Mom – let me explain again because the above didn't quite make sense lol. under IFRS you can choose to assign the cost to the PPE or use the revaluation method, i.e. the FV of the PPE. this FV assignment happens during the determination period, so at the date of acquisition.

    AUD: DONE
    FAR: DONE
    BEC: DONE
    REG: DONE

    IM GOING TO BE A CPA!!!!!

    @CPAMommyof3

    I have to dig deep into my old test session to get the explanation, see the explanation below.

    Question: 71 Under IFRS, an entity that has elected to use the revaluation model for property, plant, and equipment (PPE) may revalue PPE as often as

    A. 30 days.

    B. Annually.

    C. Anytime the determination is made.

    Answer (C) is correct.

    Assuming an entity elects the revaluation model instead of the cost model, an item of PPE whose fair value can be reliably measured may be carried at a revalued amount equal to fair value at the revaluation date (minus subsequent accumulated depreciation and impairment losses). Revaluation is needed whenever fair value and the asset’s carrying amount differ materially. If an item of PPE is revalued, all of the items in its class (e.g., land, buildings, or office equipment) also should be revalued. Accumulated depreciation is restated proportionately or eliminated.

    D. 90 days.
