Correct Answer: Revalued goodwill can be shown in the Balance Sheet 


Solution : Answer = Revalued goodwill can be shown in the Balance Sheet 

The statement "Revalued goodwill can be shown in the Balance Sheet" is not true with respect to AS-26. According to AS-26, only purchased goodwill can be shown in the Balance Sheet assets side. Revalued goodwill is not recognized because goodwill is considered to have an indefinite useful life and is not subject to revaluation.
Hence, the correct option is 2.
