Spanish term or phrase: ......aflorar.....
CONTEXT 1: Hay que pagar de golpe el 3% del valor aflorado en la actualización. 2: Los activos que aflorará la actualización.... BASICALLY, IT'S A WAY OF SAYING THAT ONE MUST PAY THE DIFFERENCE (1) AND/OR THE UPDATED VALUE (2). Is there any specific, standard way of translating this term?

English translation:> see below <
Explanation:
"Aflorar" = "to disclose" or "to reveal." The idea here is that sums or assets that were previously (shall we say) undisclosed have been, or will be, brought to light during the updating of the figures. (Picture a company executive exclaiming, wide-eyed, to the auditors: "Gosh! Wherever did that amount come from?"). -- HTH, HC

updated value, updated assets


Explanation:
I suppose it would be better just to say: "% of updated value. 2: Updated assets." The use of the verb "aflorar" is wrong since it cannot be used as a transitive verb.

coming to light


Explanation:
This is a tough one. It's about accounting for the the discovery or recognition of assets that had been previously hidden in order to avoid taxes. Keep the verb «florecer» (to blossom) in mind...
