IFRS 16 - Presentation basics to intermediate level
- 1. IFRS® Foundation IFRS 16 Leases Prepared By: Anas Ali Ismail Ahmed Shabbir Asad Ahmed Khan Abdul Muizz Khan
- 4. IAS 17 V IFRS 16 IFRS 16 also removes the distinction between operating and finance leases. For accounting periods commencing after 1st January 2019 ALL leases must be capitalised in the statements of the lessee. There are 2 possible exemptions: • where the lease is for a maximum term of 12 months or less, • Where the asset has a value of less than (around) £3,000 in value.
- 5. IAS 17 V IFRS 16 Under IAS 17 many companies treated leases as operating leases and therefore did not capitalise either the asset or the liability. This made it difficult to compare companies that used different types of agreements to essentially have a similar right of use of similar assets. From an interpretation point of view, a company using hire purchase as a means to finance assets would appear to have a poorer current ratio, acid test ratio and gearing ratio than a company that used an operating lease to acquire the right to use an asset. IFRS 16 eliminates this problem.
