Overview. IFRS 16 specifies how an IFRS reporter will recognise, measure, present and disclose leases. The standard provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases unless the lease term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value.

GASB 87 will sort lease agreements into three categories: short-term leases, contracts that transfer ownership, and all other leases.

A lease liability is the financial obligation for the payments required by a lease, discounted to present value. Under ASC 842, IFRS 16, and GASB 87, the lease liability is calculated as the present value of the remaining lease payments over the lease term.

Under IFRS 16 subleases are accounted for by the sub-lessor in the same way as other leases. Under IFRS 16 the head lease and a sublease are separate contracts that are accounted for under the lessee and lessor models. The sublease is classified by reference to the right-of-use asset.

Lease Liability of any person means the obligation of such person, as lessee, to pay rent or other payment amounts under a lease of real or personal property which is accounted for as a lease liability on a consolidated balance sheet of such person in accordance with GAAP.

Operating lease contract under IFRS 16 The lease liability is calculated as all the lease payments not paid at the commencement date discounted by the interest rate implicit in the lease or incremental borrowing rate.

Under IFRS 16, lessors account for finance leases by initially derecognising the asset and recognising a receivable for the net investment in the lease. Initial direct costs (other than those incurred by a manufacturer or dealer lessor) are included in the net investment in the lease.
