The properties were valued by an independent valuer who has experience of the location and class of property. The properties were valued at £450,000.
The difference between the fair value of an investment property at the reporting date and its carrying value prior to the valuation is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities as a fair value gain or loss. Any gain or loss on disposal of an investment property (calculated as the difference between the net proceeds from disposal and the carrying amount of the item) is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities.
