Eg. A lease contract is for five years with lease payments of $10,000 per annum.
The lease contract contains a clause which allows the lessee to extend the lease
for a further period of three years for a lease payment of $5 per annum (as it is
unlikely the lessor would be able to lease the asset to another party). The
economic life of the asset is estimated to be approximately eight years.The
lessee assesses it is highly likely the lease extension would be taken. The lease
term is therefore eight years.
LESSEE ACCOUNTING
• RECOGNITION:
• On the date lessor makes the underlying asset available for use to the
lessee
• The lessee recognises a
• Lease liability
• Right of use asset
• LEASE LIABILITY: This is initially measured at the present value of future
lease payments( not paid before commencement of date) discounted to
the interest rate implicit in the lease or the lessee’s incremental borrowing
rate.
• Discounted cash flows the are discounted to include the following
• Fixed payments
• Variable payments based on an index
• Amount to be paid in residual value guarantees
• Purchase options if any
• Variable payments based on an index are accounted for as period costs in SOPL as
incurred.
• Lease liability may be subsequently measured by
• Increasing it by implicit interest
• Reducing it by lease payments made
Right of use asset
• Initial measurement
• at initial lease liability( PV of future obligations)
• Payments made before commencement of lease less any incentives received
• An estimate of dismantling and restoration costs, where such obligations exist
• Revised discount rate- where there is a change In lease term, purchase option
or if the payment is linked to a floating interest rate.
If consideration recd does not equal market fair value, sale proceeds are adjusted
to fair values
a) Below market- the difference is accounted as prepayment of lease payments
and so added to RTU asset.
b) Above market terms- the difference is treated as additional financing and the
lease liability is split into lease payments and additional financing (loan)
The buyer seller accounts for the purchase as a normal purchase and for the lease
• If sale has not happened,
• Seller lessee continues to recognise trfd asset and recognises a
financial liability equal to transfer proceeds
• Buyer lessor does not recognise the asset and recognises a financial
asset equal to transfer proceeds
On 1 January 20X1, Painting sells an item of machinery to Collage
for its fair value of $3 million. The asset had a carrying amount of
$1.2 million prior to the sale. This sale represents the satisfaction of
a performance obligation, in accordance with IFRS 15 Revenue
from Contracts with Customers. Painting enters into a contract with
Collage for the right to use the asset for the next five years. Annual
payments of $500,000 are due at the end of each year. The interest
rate implicit in the lease is 10%.
•The present value of the annual lease payments is £1.9 million.
The remaining useful life of the machine is much greater than the
lease term.
• below market terms (e.g. when the sales proceeds are less than the asset’s fair value) are treated
as a prepayment of lease payments
• above market terms (e.g. when the sales proceeds exceed the asset’s fair value) are treated as
additional financing.
•On 1 January 20X1, Mosaic sells an item of machinery to Ceramic for $3 million. Its
fair value was $2.8 million. The asset had a carrying amount of $1.2 million prior to the
sale. This sale represents the satisfaction of performance obligation, in accordance
with IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
•Mosaic enters into a contract with Ceramic for the right to use the asset for the next
five years. Annual payments of $500,000 are due at the end of each year. The interest
rate implicit in the lease is 10%. The present value of the annual lease payments is
$1.9 million.
•Required:
• Explain how the transaction will be accounted for on 1 January 20X1 by both Mosaic and
Ceramic
•The excess sales proceeds are $0.2 million ($3m – $2.8m). This is treated as additional financing.
•The present value of the lease payments was $1.9 million. It is assumed that $0.2 million relates to
the additional financing that Mosaic has been given. The remaining $1.7 million relates to the
lease.
•Mosaic
•Mosaic must remove the carrying amount of the machine from its statement of financial position. It
should instead recognise a right-ofuse asset. This right-of-use asset will be measured as the
proportion of the previous carrying amount that relates to the rights retained by Mosaic:
• (1.7m/2.8m) × $1.2 million = $0.73 million.
•The entry required is as follows:
•The right of use asset and the lease liability will then be accounted for using normal lessee accounting rules.
The financial liability is accounted for in accordance with IFRS 9 Financial Instruments. Ceramic
•It will then account for the lease using normal lessor accounting rules.
•Note
•The payments/receipts will be allocated between the lease and the additional finance. This is based on the
proportion of the total present value of the payments that they represent:
• The payment/receipt allocated to the additional finance will be $52,632 ((0.2/1.9) × $500,000).
