a revaluation reserve is an increase in the value of fixed assets.for example,if a building was valued at £900,000 in 2007,and its net book value at that date was only £700,000,the difference of £200,000 is revaluation reserve.if the net book value would have been £950,000, there would be a revaluation deficit of £50,000.
