The excess deprecation is the new depreciation amount of $50,000 less the old depreciationcharge of $30,000

($750,000/25 years)

which is $20,000. This amount should be debitedfrom the revaluation surplus and credited to retained earnings each year.

Remember that both retained earnings and the revaluations surplus are credit balances in the trial balance
