If the lessee capitalizes a lease, the lessee records an asset
and a liability generally equal to the present value of the rental
payments.
 Records depreciation on the leased asset.
 Treats the lease payments as consisting of interest and
principal.

For a finance lease, the IASB has identified four criteria.
1. Lease transfers ownership of the property to the lessee.
2. Lease contains a bargain-purchase option.
3. Lease term is for major part of the economic life of the
asset.
One or more

4. Present value of the minimum
lease payments amounts to
substantially all of the fair value

Capitalization Criteria
Transfer of Ownership Test
 If the lease transfers ownership of the asset to the lessee,
it is a finance lease.
Bargain-Purchase Option Test
 At the inception of the lease, the difference between the
option price and the expected fair market value must be
large enough to make exercise of the option reasonably
assured.

Economic Life Test
 Lease term is generally considered to be the fixed, non-

Illustration: CNH Capital (NLD) (a subsidiary of CNH Global) and Ivanhoe Mines
Ltd. (CAN) sign a lease agreement dated January 1, 2015, that calls for CNH to
lease a front-end loader to Ivanhoe beginning January 1, 2015. The terms and
provisions of the lease agreement and other pertinent data are as follows.
• The term of the lease is five years. The lease agreement is non-cancelable,
requiring equal rental payments of $25,981.62 at the beginning of each year
(annuity-due basis).
• The loader has a fair value at the inception of the lease of $100,000, an
estimated economic life of five years, and no residual value.
• Ivanhoe pays all of the executory costs directly to third parties except for the
property taxes of $2,000 per year, which is included as part of its annual
payments to CNH.
• The lease contains no renewal options. The loader reverts to CNH at the
termination of the lease.
• Ivanhoe’s incremental borrowing rate is 11 percent per year.
• Ivanhoe depreciates similar equipment that it owns on a straight-line basis.
• CNH sets the annual rental to earn a rate of return on its investment of 10
percent per year; Ivanhoe knows this fact.

Illustration: Using the data from the preceding CNH/Ivanhoe example
we illustrate the accounting treatment for a direct-financing lease. We
repeat here the information relevant to CNH in accounting for this
lease transaction.
1. The term of the lease is five years beginning January 1, 2015,
non-cancelable, and requires equal rental payments of $25,981.62
at the beginning of each year. Payments include $2,000 of
executory costs (property taxes).
2. The equipment (front-end loader) has a cost of $100,000 to CNH,
a fair value at the inception of the lease of $100,000, an estimated
economic life of five years, and no residual value.
3. CNH incurred no initial direct costs in negotiating and closing the
lease transaction.

We repeat here the information relevant to CNH in accounting for this

10 percent (implicit rate) on its investment as shown.

The lease meets the criteria for classification as a direct-
financing lease for two reasons:
1. the lease term equals the equipment’s estimated economic
life, and
2. the present value of the minimum lease payments equals the
equipment's fair value.
It is not a sales-type lease because there is no difference
between the fair value ($100,000) of the loader and CNH’s cost
($100,000).

value is when the lessee agrees to make up any deficiency
below a stated amount that the lessor realizes in residual value
at the end of the lease term.

 Primary difference between a direct-financing lease and
a sales-type lease is the manufacturer’s or dealer’s
gross profit (or loss).
 Lessor records the sale price of the asset, the cost of
goods sold and related inventory reduction, and the
lease receivable.
 There is a difference in accounting for guaranteed and
unguaranteed residual values.

any unguaranteed residual value. The lease receivable therefore includes
the present value of the residual value, whether guaranteed or not.
SALES PRICE OF THE ASSET. The present value of the minimum lease

the same facts as in the preceding direct-financing lease
situation. The estimated residual value is $5,000 (the present
value of which is $3,104.60), and the leased equipment has an
$85,000 cost to the dealer, CNH. Assume that the fair market
value of the residual value is $3,000 at the end of the lease term.

SPECIAL ACCOUNTING PROBLEMS
LO 9
21-85
To avoid leased asset capitalization, companies design, write,
and interpret lease agreements to prevent satisfying any of the
four finance lease criteria.
The real challenge lies in disqualifying the lease as a finance
lease to the lessee, while having the same lease qualify as a
finance (sales or financing) lease to the lessor.
Unlike lessees, lessors try to avoid having lease arrangements
classified as operating leases.

LEASE ACCOUNTING
Leasing is a global business. Lessors and lessees enter into arrangements
with one another without regard to national boundaries. Although U.S. GAAP
and IFRS for leasing are similar, both the FASB and the IASB have decided
that the existing accounting does not provide the most useful, transparent, and
complete information about leasing transactions that should be provided in the
financial statements.
GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS
21-87
Relevant Facts
Following are the key similarities and differences between U.S. GAAP and
IFRS related to accounting for leases.
Similarities
• Both U.S. GAAP and IFRS share the same objective of recording leases by
lessees and lessors according to their economic substance, that is,
according to the definitions of assets and liabilities.
• Much of the terminology for lease accounting in U.S. GAAP and IFRS is the
same.
• Under U.S. GAAP and IFRS, lessees and lessors use the same general
lease capitalization criteria to determine if the risks and rewards of
ownership have been transferred in the lease.
GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS
21-88
Relevant Facts
Differences
• One difference in lease terminology is that finance leases are referred to as
capital leases in U.S. GAAP.
• U.S. GAAP for leases uses bright-line criteria to determine if a lease
arrangement transfers the risks and rewards of ownership; IFRS is more
general in its provisions.
• U.S. GAAP has additional lessor criteria: payments are collectible, and
there are no additional costs associated with a lease.
• U.S. GAAP requires use of the incremental rate unless the implicit rate is
known by the lessee and the implicit rate is lower than the incremental rate.
IFRS requires that lessees use the implicit rate to record a lease unless it is
impractical to determine the lessor’s implicit rate.
GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS
21-89
Relevant Facts
Differences
• Under U.S. GAAP, extensive disclosure of future non-cancelable lease
payments is required for each of the next five years and the years
thereafter. IFRS does not require it although some companies provide a
year-by-year breakout of payments due in years 1 through 5.
• The FASB standard for leases (SFAS No. 13) has been the subject of more
than 30 interpretations since its issuance. The IFRS leasing standard is IAS
17, first issued in 1982. This standard is the subject of only three
interpretations. One reason for this small number of interpretations is that
IFRS does not specifically address a number of leasing transactions that
are covered by U.S. GAAP. Examples include lease agreements for natural
resources, sale-leasebacks, real estate leases, and leveraged leases.
GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS
21-90
On the Horizon
Lease accounting is one of the areas identified in the IASB/FASB
Memorandum of Understanding. The Boards have issued proposed rules
based on “right of use,” which requires that all leases, regardless of their
terms, be accounted for in a manner similar to how finance leases are treated
today. That is, the notion of an operating lease will be eliminated, which will
address the concerns under current rules in which no asset or liability is
recorded for many operating leases. A final standard is expected in 2015. You
can follow the lease project at the IASB website (http://www.iasb.org).

21-99 LO 11 Describe the lessee’s accounting for sale-leaseback transactions.
The term sale-leaseback describes a transaction in which
the owner of the property (seller-lessee) sells the property to
another and simultaneously leases it back from the new
owner.
Advantages:
1. Financing
2. Taxes
APPENDIX 21B SALE-LEASEBACKS
21-100
DETERMINING ASSET USE
To the extent the seller-lessee continues to use the asset
after the sale, the sale-leaseback is really a form of financing.
 Lessor should not recognize a gain or loss on the
transaction.
If the seller-lessee gives up the right to the use of the asset,
the transaction is in substance a sale.
 Gain or loss recognition is appropriate.
LO 11
APPENDIX 21A SALE-LEASEBACKS
21-101
If the lease meets one of the four criteria for treatment as a
finance lease, the seller-lessee should
 Account for the transaction as a sale and the lease as a
finance lease.
 Defer any profit or loss it experiences from the sale of the
assets that are leased back under a finance lease.
 Amortize profit over the lease term .
Lessee
APPENDIX 21A SALE-LEASEBACKS
LO 11
21-102
If none of the finance lease criteria are satisfied, the seller-
lessee accounts for the transaction as a sale and the lease
as an operating lease.
 Lessee defers such profit or loss and amortizes it in
proportion to the rental payments over the period when it
expects to use the assets.
Lessee
APPENDIX 21A SALE-LEASEBACKS
LO 11
21-103
If the lease meets one of the lease capitalization criteria, the
purchaser-lessor records the transaction as a purchase and a
direct-financing lease.
If the lease does not meet the criteria, the purchaser-lessor
records the transaction as a purchase and an operating lease.
Lessor
APPENDIX 21A SALE-LEASEBACKS

Japan Airlines (JAL) on January 1, 2015, sells a used Boeing 757 having a
carrying amount on its books of $75,500,000 to CitiCapital for $80,000,000. JAL
immediately leases the aircraft back under the following conditions:
1. The term of the lease is 15 years, non-cancelable, and requires equal rental
payments of $10,487,443 at the beginning of each year.
2. The aircraft has a fair value of $80,000,000 on January 1, 2015, and an
estimated economic life of 15 years.
3. JAL pays all executory costs.
4. JAL depreciates similar aircraft that it owns on a straight-line basis over 15
years.
5. The annual payments assure the lessor a 12 percent return.
6. JAL’s incremental borrowing rate is 12 percent.
SALE-LEASEBACK EXAMPLE
APPENDIX 21A SALE-LEASEBACKS
LO 11
21-105
This lease is a finance lease to JAL because the lease term is
equal to the estimated life of the aircraft and because the
present value of the lease payments is equal to the fair value of
the aircraft to CitiCapital.
CitiCapital should classify this lease as a direct financing lease.

  • 39. 21-39 Illustration: Using the data from the preceding CNH/Ivanhoe example we illustrate the accounting treatment for a direct-financing lease. We repeat here the information relevant to CNH in accounting for this lease transaction. 1. The term of the lease is five years beginning January 1, 2015, non-cancelable, and requires equal rental payments of $25,981.62 at the beginning of each year. Payments include $2,000 of executory costs (property taxes). 2. The equipment (front-end loader) has a cost of $100,000 to CNH, a fair value at the inception of the lease of $100,000, an estimated economic life of five years, and no residual value. 3. CNH incurred no initial direct costs in negotiating and closing the lease transaction. ACCOUNTING BY THE LESSOR (continued) LO 5
  • 40. 21-40 We repeat here the information relevant to CNH in accounting for this lease transaction. 4. The lease contains no renewal options.

  • 41. 21-41 The lease meets the criteria for classification as a direct- financing lease for two reasons: 1. the lease term equals the equipment’s estimated economic life, and 2. the present value of the minimum lease payments equals the equipment's fair value. It is not a sales-type lease because there is no difference between the fair value ($100,000) of the loader and CNH’s cost ($100,000). ACCOUNTING BY THE LESSOR LO 5

  • 86. 21-86 LEASE ACCOUNTING Leasing is a global business. Lessors and lessees enter into arrangements with one another without regard to national boundaries. Although U.S. GAAP and IFRS for leasing are similar, both the FASB and the IASB have decided that the existing accounting does not provide the most useful, transparent, and complete information about leasing transactions that should be provided in the financial statements. GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS
  • 87. 21-87 Relevant Facts Following are the key similarities and differences between U.S. GAAP and IFRS related to accounting for leases. Similarities • Both U.S. GAAP and IFRS share the same objective of recording leases by lessees and lessors according to their economic substance, that is, according to the definitions of assets and liabilities. • Much of the terminology for lease accounting in U.S. GAAP and IFRS is the same. • Under U.S. GAAP and IFRS, lessees and lessors use the same general lease capitalization criteria to determine if the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred in the lease. GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS
  • 88. 21-88 Relevant Facts Differences • One difference in lease terminology is that finance leases are referred to as capital leases in U.S. GAAP. • U.S. GAAP for leases uses bright-line criteria to determine if a lease arrangement transfers the risks and rewards of ownership; IFRS is more general in its provisions. • U.S. GAAP has additional lessor criteria: payments are collectible, and there are no additional costs associated with a lease. • U.S. GAAP requires use of the incremental rate unless the implicit rate is known by the lessee and the implicit rate is lower than the incremental rate. IFRS requires that lessees use the implicit rate to record a lease unless it is impractical to determine the lessor’s implicit rate. GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS
  • 89. 21-89 Relevant Facts Differences • Under U.S. GAAP, extensive disclosure of future non-cancelable lease payments is required for each of the next five years and the years thereafter. IFRS does not require it although some companies provide a year-by-year breakout of payments due in years 1 through 5. • The FASB standard for leases (SFAS No. 13) has been the subject of more than 30 interpretations since its issuance. The IFRS leasing standard is IAS 17, first issued in 1982. This standard is the subject of only three interpretations. One reason for this small number of interpretations is that IFRS does not specifically address a number of leasing transactions that are covered by U.S. GAAP. Examples include lease agreements for natural resources, sale-leasebacks, real estate leases, and leveraged leases. GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS
  • 90. 21-90 On the Horizon Lease accounting is one of the areas identified in the IASB/FASB Memorandum of Understanding. The Boards have issued proposed rules based on “right of use,” which requires that all leases, regardless of their terms, be accounted for in a manner similar to how finance leases are treated today. That is, the notion of an operating lease will be eliminated, which will address the concerns under current rules in which no asset or liability is recorded for many operating leases. A final standard is expected in 2015. You can follow the lease project at the IASB website (http://www.iasb.org). GLOBAL ACCOUNTING INSIGHTS
