As of January I, 2014, Pike had one piece of land that it accounted for using the revaluation model. It was most recently revalued to fair value on December 31, 2013, when its carrying amount was adjusted to fair value of $215,000.
In January 2014, the piece of land was sold for proceeds of $216,000. In applying the revaluation model, Pike maintains the balance in the Revaluation Surplus (OCI) account until the asset is retired or disposed of.

The investments in the portfolio are traded in an active market. Pike records unrealized gains and losses on these investments as OCI, and then books these gains and losses to net income when they are impaired or sold. The portfolio's carrying amount on December 31, 2013, was $110,000. The entire portfolio was sold in November 2014 for proceeds of$126,000.
Pike's income tax expense for 2014 was $99,000. Pike prepares financial statements in accordance with IFRS.
