Foreign companies operating in the Russian Federation maintain fixed asset accounts in their own currency, but are also required to generate a recalculation in rubles for Russian tax accounting. If the fixed asset is valued in a foreign currency, the accounting currency is specified in the asset record. Cost figures for all transactions are specified both in the accounting currency and in the original company currency at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date. When you change the currency exchange rate, the asset is revalued in rubles, in correspondence with the profit and loss accounts, which are maintained in rubles.

You can perform individual or group currency revaluation transactions for the value of objects of depreciated property. When you perform group transactions, the records are updated to reflect the currency revaluation and the depreciation is calculated at the rate in effect on the date of the transaction. When you perform individual transactions, the currency revaluation and depreciation are calculated in two separate transactions.

When currency is revaluated, the following actions occur:

  • Corresponding transactions are created in the ledger.

  • The depreciated cost of the fixed asset is updated.
