Obsolete stock is recorded at ₹18000. Its realisable value is ₹6500. What is the revaluation loss?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: ₹11500

The correct answer is B: ₹11,500. The stock is currently recorded at ₹18,000, but its realisable value is only ₹6,500. It must therefore be reduced by the difference: ₹18,000 − ₹6,500 = ₹11,500. This reduction is a fall in an asset’s value, so Stock Account is credited and Revaluation Account is debited by ₹11,500. Option A gives only the new value, not the loss. Option B gives the exact decrease and is correct. Option C adds the two figures, which is not the required comparison. Option D gives the old book value rather than the amount of reduction. Memory cue: revaluation loss on an asset equals old book value minus revised value when the revised value is lower.
