A few examples of lease incentives include cash payments made at the date of lease execution, a lessor buying out or taking over the lessee's previous lease, or any type of leasehold improvement paid by the lessor. A leasehold improvement is an improvement to the leased property.

IFRS 16 requires that the lease liability should initially be measured at the present value of the lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date. The discount rate used to determine present value should be the rate of interest implicit in the lease.

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.

Application to lease accounting Since a lessee's lease liability is a monetary item, the liability is translated using a current exchange rate at the end of each reporting period and foreign exchange differences are recognised in profit or loss.

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.

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.
