Introduction to IFRS 16 (Leases) [Video]

Introduction to IFRS 16 (Leases)

IFRS 16 establishes the rules for the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of leases for both lessors and lessees.

The IASB issued IFRS 16 in January of 2016 (it replaced IAS 17).

IFRS 16 had a substantial impact on the accounting for lessees because it requires lessees to capitalize all leases (with two exceptions). This means lessees must recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability upon commencement of a lease.

The goal of IFRS 16 was to increase transparency in financial reporting. Prior to IFRS 16, lessees could structure leases so that the lease liability didn’t appear on their statement of financial position (aka balance sheet). Thus, leases were used as a means of off-balance sheet financing (to keep debt off a company’s balance sheet).

IFRS 16 affects the the financial statements of lessees in the following ways:
(1) they will report higher total assets and total liabilities than they would have reported under the old accounting rules
(2) expenses will be front-loaded, because more interest expense will be recognized in the early years of the lease when the lease liability is higher
(3) they will report a higher EBITDA than they would have reported under the old accounting rules

IFRS 16 Lessor Accounting Example 1 | Finance Lease [Video]

When a lessor accounts for a finance lease under IFRS 16, the lessor must derecognize the asset from its statement of financial position and record a lease receivable upon commencement of the lease. If the lessor is a manufacturer or dealer, then the lessor must also record sales revenue and cost of goods sold upon commencement of the lease. The lessor will then recognize interest revenue throughout the lease term. At the end of the lease, the lessor will restore the asset to its statement of financial position. If the actual residual value turns out to be less than the guaranteed residual value, the lessor will receive cash from the lessee to cover the shortfall. — Edspira is the creation of Michael McLaughlin, who went from teenage homelessness to a PhD.
