Separate Currency Lease For Free

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

From a lease accounting perspective, a capital lease is treated as if the lessee has purchased the asset using debt financing. The asset and the associated lease liability are recorded on the lessee's balance sheet. Each lease payment is allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and interest expense.

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.

Currency translations use the exchange rate at the end of the reported period for assets and liabilities, the exchange rate on the date that income or an expense was recognized for the income statement, and a historical exchange rate at the date of entry to shareholder equity.

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.
