Advise Lily who is the accountant for GS Pty Ltd, to account for the depreciation and revaluation exercises for the year ending 30 June 2020. Both pieces of equipment were measured using the revaluation model and depreciated on a straight-line basis. Array was revalued a number of times in prior years and it has accumulated revaluation decrements being previously recognized in the profit or loss by 30 June 2019 of $24,000. The directors have estimated the fair value for Array on 30 June 2020 to be $12,800. Big Beast was revalued for the first time on 30 June 2019, from $33,000 to $30,000, where the loss on revaluation has been recorded in the accounts for that year. It has been determined that Big Beast has an estimated fair value of $25,000 on 30 June 2020. Ignore any tax effect.



Required: Lily is required to prepare the necessary journal entries for the year ending 30 June 2020 to record the depreciation and revaluations for the equipment in accordance with AASB 116 Property, Plant and Equipment.


 Important tips:

All journal entries in chronological order, with dates stated clearly.
