Ans:A.
The increase in an asset’s value would increase depreciation expense and therefore decrease ROE in future periods, not increase it.An asset revaluation that reverses a previous downward revaluation is reported in net income in the period it is revalued.Hence management can use upward revaluations to increase net income (and hence meet the analysts’ expectations).This one-time increase in net income would increase ROE for the current year only.
