A lease will be recorded on the balance sheet as a right-of-use (ROU) asset and lease liability. The lease liability is the payment obligation over the term of the lease contract, while the ROU asset represents the control of the asset under the lease contract.

Current rate Method The assets and liabilities of the business are translated at the current exchange rate. Since this can lead to volatility associated with changes in the exchange rate, gains and losses associated with this translation are reported on a reserve account instead of the consolidated net income account.

9. A foreign currency transaction should be recorded, on initial recognition in the reporting currency, by applying to the foreign currency amount the exchange rate between the reporting currency and the foreign currency at the date of the transaction.

The liability to make lease payments is a monetary liability, and the right-of-use asset is a non- monetary asset.

At the date a foreign currency transaction occurs, each asset, liability, revenue, expense, gain, or loss arising from the transaction is recorded in the functional currency of the recording entity using the exchange rate in effect at that date.

The lessor reports the lease as a leased asset on the balance sheet and individual lease payments as income on the income and cash flow statements. The lessee reports the lease as both an asset and a liability on the balance sheet due to their stake as a potential owner of the asset and their required payment.

A common approach is to estimate the amount of the incentive and its timing and then account for it as payable at lease commencement time. If there is a substantial difference between the estimate and the actual timing or amount of the incentive, the lease liability and ROU asset should be remeasured.
