Definition of Lease

A lease is an agreement whereby the lessor conveys to the lessee in return for a payment or series of payments the right to use an asset for an agreed period of time.

Owner/LesserTransfers the

right to use the asset

User/ Lessee

This AS applies to agreements that transfers the right to use assets even though substantial services by the lessor may be called for in connection with the operation or maintenance of such assets.

This AS does not apply to agreements that are contracts for services that do not transfer the right to use assets from one contacting party to the other.

Applicable

Not Applicable

Economic life of an Asset

Either

The period over which the asset is expected to be economically usable by one or more users

Or

The number of production or similar units expected to be obtained from the asset by one or more users

Useful life of a leased asset

Either

The period over which the leased asset is expected to be used by the Lessee

Or

The number of production or similar units expected to be obtained from the asset by the Lessee

Fair Value•The value at which the asset could be exchanged or a liability could be settled between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction

Residual Value•Estimated fair value of the asset at the end of the lease term

Residual Value

Guaranteed Residual Value

Unguaranteed residual value

Guaranteed Residual Value (GRV)

In case of lessee

• Guaranteed by the lessee • By a party on behalf of the lessee

In case of Lessor

• Guaranteed by the lessee or• By a party on behalf of the lessee or• By an independent 3rd party who is financially capable of discharging the obligations under the guarantee

Minimum Lease Payments (MLP)Payments over the lease terms that the lessee is or can be required to

make, excluding Contingent Rent, Costs for services and taxes to be paid by and reimbursed to the lessor together with

In the case of Lessee, any GRV by or on behalf of lessee;

In the case of Lessor, Any GRV by or behalf of lesser or independent third party

It also includes the payments required to be made to exercise the Purchase Option (PO) if such option exists.

Minimum Lease Payments (MLP)

O It is the consideration under the lease contract.

MLP

LP + GRV

Contingent RentO It is that portion of the lease payments that

is not fixed in amount but is based on a factor other than just passage of time.

O Example : Percentage of sales

Interest rate implicit in the lease

It is the discount rate that at the inception of lease causes the aggregate present value of MLP and any URV to be equal to the fair value of the asset.

PV(MLP) PV(URV) FV

Lessee’s Incremental borrowing cost

It is the rate of interest the lessee would have to pay on a similar lease or, if that’s not determinable, the rate that, at the inception of the lease, the lessee would incur to borrow over a similar term, and with a similar security, the funds necessary to purchase the asset.

Gross Investment in the Lease

It is the aggregate of the minimum lease payments under a finance lease from the standpoint of the lessor and any unguaranteed residual value accruing to the lessor

MLP URV GI

Unearned Finance IncomeIt is the difference between Gross Investment in the lease and;O Present value of

O MLP from standpoint of lessorO Any URV accruing to the lessor, at the

interest rate implicit in the lease.

Net InvestmentIt is the gross investment in the lease reduced by unearned finance income.

Definitions in other words

Unearned Finance income = GI - NI

NI = PV(GI)

NI = GI –[GI-PV(GI)]

NI = GI – Unearned Finance Income

Unearned Finance Income = GI – PV(GI)

Unearned Finance Income = GI – PV( MLP+URV)

GI = (LP + GRV) + URV

GI = MLP + URV

MLP=LP+GRV or MLP = LP + PO

Classification of Lease

• Lease that transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incident to the ownership

Finance Lease

• Lease other than finance lease

Operating Lease

Basis for Classification

Risks

• Includes the possibilities of losses from idle capacity or Technological obsolescence and of variations in return due to changing economic conditions

Rewards

• Represents the expectation of profitable operation over the economic life of the asset and of gain from appreciation in value or realisation of residual value

Situations which would normally lead to a lease being classified as a finance lease;O The lease transfers ownership of the asset to the

lessee by the end of the lease termO The lessee has the option to purchase the asset at a

price lesser than fair value.O The lease term is for the major part of the economic

life of the asset even if title is not transferredO At the inception of the lease, Present value of the

MLP amounts to at least all of the fair value of the leased amount

O The asset is of a specialised nature such that only the lessee can use it without major modifications being made

O If on cancellation of the lease by the lessee, the consequent losses of lessor are borne by the lessee.

O Gains or losses from the fluctuation in the fair value of the residual fall to the lessee.

O The lessee can continue the lease for a secondary period at a rent which is substantially lower than market value.

Reclassification of leaseO Lease classification is made at the inception of the

leaseO If lessor and lessee agree to change the provision of

the lease terms other than by renewing it, in a manner that would have resulted in a different classification, the revised agreement is considered as a new agreement over its revised term.

O The change in estimates of the Economic life or of the residual value of the leased asset do not give rise to a new classification of the lease for accounting purposes.

Finance lease (Books of Lessee)

The discount rate is the interest rate implicit on the lease is this is practicable to determine, if not, the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate should be used.

The amount is equal to fair value of the leased asset or present value of the MLP from lessee’s view point, whichever is lower

At the inception, lessee recognises the lease as an asset and a liability

Finance lease give rise to a depreciation, it should be calculated in accordance with AS 6

Initial direct cost incurred specifically for the lease should be included in the amount recognised as an asset under the lease.

Finance charge is allocated over the lease term in such a way that it would produce constant rate of return on the principal balance

Each lease payments is apportioned between finance charge and reduction of the outstanding liability

Books of the Lessor

Any direct cost incurred at the inception of the lease may either be recognised immediately or allocated against the finance income over the lease term.

Lease rental receivable is treated as repayment of Principal (i.e. NI in lease) and a finance income to reimburse the lessor for its investment and services.

In case where no URV is expected to accrue to the lessor, the amounts of lease receivable recorded by the Lessor and the amount of lease liability recorded by the lessee are same.

NI = PV(MLP) + PV (URV), Discounting factor is the interest rate implicit on the lease

Recognises the asset given as a receivable at an amount equal to Net Investment in the lease

Operating Lease (Books of Lessee)

Straight lining means the total lease rent will be averaged to three years i.e. Rs.30,000/- per year should be recognised in the P&L.

Example: Suppose an asset was taken on operating lease for a period of 3 years. The lease rent for three years was Rs. 15,000/-, 30,000/- and 45,000/- respectively.

Lease should be recognised as an expense in the statement of P& L on SLM basis over the lease term unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern of the user’s benefit even if the payments are not on that basis.

Books of Lessor

Depreciation of leased assets should be charged as per AS 6

Any direct cost incurred at the inception of the lease may either be recognised immediately or allocated against the finance income over the lease term.

Recognise the lease income statement of P& L on SLM basis over the lease term unless another systematic basis is more representative of the time pattern of the user’s benefit.

Sale and Lease back

Seller

BuyerLease

O The lease payments and the sale price are usually interdependent as they are negotiated as a package.

O The accounting treatment of a sale and leaseback transaction depends upon the type of lease involved.

O Accounting for sale and finance lease back is covered under para 48 and for sale and operating lease back is covered under para 50 & 52 of the AS.
