On admission, bad debts of ₹7,000 are written off and the old provision for doubtful debts is also ₹7,000. If no new provision is required, what will be the effect on Revaluation Account?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: No net effect

The governing concept is adjustment of bad debts against an existing provision during reconstitution. The bad debts of ₹7,000 are recorded as a loss, but the old provision of exactly ₹7,000 is already available to absorb that loss. Therefore, the bad-debts amount is charged against the provision rather than creating a fresh debit balance in Revaluation Account. The net amount is ₹7,000 − ₹7,000 = nil. Hence option A is correct. Option B would be correct only if no provision existed, while option D incorrectly adds the bad debts and provision instead of offsetting them. Option C reverses the direction of the adjustment.
