Yes I agree with the controller of Dumars corporation because this is what IAS 16 says. IAS 16 Property, Plant & Equipment says that the asset must reflect its Fair value in the face of financial statements. The fair value measurement must be undertaken at the end of the year. This fair value measurement guidance(Revaluation of Non-current Assets) is in line with the prudence concept which says that liabilities and expenses must not be understated and Assets and Income must not be overstated. If we don't revalue our asset then there is increased chances of undervaluing depreciation expense due to undervalued assets.
Accounting treatment must be:
1. Waive off all the accumulated depreciation related to the revalued asset.
Dr Accumulated Depreciation XX
Cr Revaluation Reserves XX
2. Increase the cost of the asset to the revalued amount:
Dr Land (3.5-2)m $1.5m
Cr Revaluation Reserves $1.5
In the nutshell, we can say that the carrying value of the asset has been increased to the amount revalued.
The policy would be an example of DISPARATE TREATMENT DISCRIMINATION. Disparate treatment discrimination refers to unlawful, intentional employment discrimination as a result of one's race, gender or religion. It involves unequal behaviour toward someone because of a protected feature.

- Being the upscale restaurant they have to work on their own image not acquiring unnecessary agencies.
- They have their own customer market, who won't compromise on the choices they make, so they don't need to acquire a travel agency to increase it's branding as not everyone can afford such restaurants.
