Accounting for fixed asset received as donation

Quick Summary
Donated fixed assets should generally be capitalised at fair value with credit to donation/corpus or deferred income depending on nature of grant. There is debate on whether to use nominal value or fair value under AS 12/IAS 20. Depreciation treatment depends on whether the asset is recognised in books and applicable NGO/Trust rules.

treatment of Fixed assets purchased in the book of trust ?

We r a co-op hsg society and we r having a flat in society name.

But we hv not separately account in the books of accounts but shown as a unit value and b unit value

Now we intend selling the flat for using for major repairs. now should we separately account in the books of accounts with a particular value.this flat was purchased way back in 1974 and in 2012 the society was redeveloped and the society flat became bigger just like other flats.

Kindly advise
