Yes. It will be normal entries. If you had credited any specific reverse for land purchase after the purchase is completed it needs to be reversed.
Question: A business wants to reserve funds for a future building construction project. It credits a Building Reserve fund for INR 5 million and debits retained earnings for the same amount. The building is then constructed at a cost of INR 4.9 million, which is accounted for as a debit to the fixed assets account and a credit to cash. What happens when the building is completed?
Answer: The original entry is reversed, where INR 5 million will be debited to the building reserve account and credited to the retained earnings account.
