Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
The correct journal entries include recognizing the deferred tax liability due to the revaluation increase and accounting for the gain on revaluation net of its tax effect. The revaluation increases the carrying amount of the machinery to $400,000, creating a temporary difference that will result in taxable amounts when the asset is recovered. The tax effect of this revaluation is calculated on the revaluation surplus ($400,000 fair value - $350,000 carrying amount = $50,000 revaluation surplus) at the tax rate of 30%, resulting in a deferred tax liability of $15,000. The gain on revaluation is recognized in other comprehensive income (OCI), net of tax.
