选项:
A.It is inappropriate, the increased fair value should never be regarded as a profit.
B.It is inappropriate, the revaluation should be recorded in equity.
C.It is appropriate.
解释:
B is correct. The increased fair value can be regarded as profit based on IFRS, but only when the identical asset has been recognized in the income statement previously. In the given condition, the revaluation should be recorded in equity directly.
