Abstract

Tangible assets revaluation has an impact over equity, profit and the financial indicators of the company, several being relevant for the decision making process of investor'(tm)s and company management. The revaluation process is usually done by valuation experts who have to start their mission departing from the accounting information regarding the revalued assets. A sound understanding of accounting rules and of the necessities of the revaluation process is essential for a reliable revaluation. Lack of specific accounting knowledge on the valuer'(tm)s side can lead to distorted representations of the valued assets which will affect faithful representation, have accounting and fiscal impacts and can also raise problems when auditing the company. The quality and valuation expertise of the called-in appraiser are also relevant for the outcome of the revaluation process, especially if market values evidence is scarce or the revaluated assets are highly specialised. We present the actions that the valuer and the entity have to pursue in order to ensure a reliable revaluation process, contributing thus to a better understanding of the practical approach to assets revaluation and its specific requirements.
