Nature and classification of leases.
Accounting by lessee:
operating lease
finance lease
Accounting by lessor:
operating lease
direct financing lease
Sales and leaseback transactions.
Disclosure requirement.
3. Learning outcomes:
• Define what is lease & differentiate between
operating & finance lease
• Record the leases transactions in the book of
lessor and lessee
• Define and record sales and leaseback
transantions

4. Definition of Lease
BKAF3063 – A141 4
MFRS 117 (Para 4):
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.
MFRS 117 (Para 4):
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.
5. Advantages of Lease
BKAF3063 – A141 5
1) 100% financing at fixed rates – without requiring any down
payment, lease payments often remain fixed.
2) Protection against obsolescence – reduce risk of
obsolescence.
3) Flexibility – less restrictive provision than other debt
agreements.
4) Less costly financing.
5) Off-Balance-Sheet financing – specifically on operating
lease.
6. Finance Lease

and rewards incidental to

Risks include the
possibilities of losses from
idle capacity or
technological obsolescence
and of variations in return
due to changing economic
conditions
Rewards may be
represented by the
expectation of profitable
operation over the asset’s
economic life and of gain
from appreciation in value
or realization of a residual
value.
8. Ownership Transfer
BKAF3063 – A141
8
Legal form:
- Title remains with the lessor for all types of lease.
Accounting view:
“Substance over form”
A lease that transfers substantially all of the benefits and
risks incidental to the ownership of property should be
accounted for as acquisition of an asset and the incurrence
of an obligation by the lessee.
“practically how the asset treated/used…” vs. “legally who
own the asset…”
Conclusion:
The ownership rights differs according to type of the lease.
9. Classification of Lease:
Para 10 - depends on the substance of the
transaction rather than the form of the contract.

11. Terms
BKAF3063 – A141 11
☺ Lease Term
- Non-cancellable period for which lessee has contracted to lease.
- Commencement of lease term = when recognition takes place.
☺ Inception date
- the earlier of the date of the lease agreement and the date of
commitment by the parties to the principle provision of the lease.
- Inception of the lease = when leases are classified.
☺ Bargain purchase option (BPO)
- option to purchase the asset at a price lower than fair value at the date
of the option become exercisable.
12. Terms… (cont)
BKAF3063 – A141 12
Minimum Lease Payment (MLP)
Payments over the lease term that the lessee is or can be required
to make excluding contingent rent, cost for services, and taxes, to
be paid and reimbursed to the lessor; together with
(+) Guaranteed residual value:
a) lessee: any amounts guaranteed by the lessee or related
party; or
b) lessor: any residual value guaranteed by lessee or party
related to lessee, or third party.
(+) BPO (bargain purchase option)
13. Terms …(cont.)
BKAF3063 – A141 13
☺ Guaranteed Residual Value
- Lessee: part of the RV guaranteed by the lessee or by a party related to
the lessee (being the max amounts payable at the end of lease term)
- Lessor: part of RV guaranteed by the lessee or by a third party unrelated
to the lessor who is capable to pay the guaranteed amounts.
☺ Initial direct cost
- incremental cost that are directly attributable to negotiating and
arranging a lease, except for such costs incurred by manufacturer or
dealer lessors.
- Example: legal fees, lease agreement commission etc.
14. Terms …(cont.)
BKAF3063 – A141 14
☺ Gross Investment
a) the MLP receivable by the lessor under a finance lease, and
b) any unguaranteed residual value accruing to the lessor.
☺ Net Investment
- the gross investment in the lease discounted at the interest rate
implicit in the lease.
15. Classification of Lease…cont.
BKAF3063 – A141 15
Para 15A – 18:
☞ When a lease includes both land and buildings elements, an entity
assesses the classification of each element as a finance or an
operating lease separately in accordance with paragraphs 7–13.
☞ Land
usually operating due to indefinite useful life.
if title passed – finance lease.
☞ MLP allocated in the proportion to the relative FV of both
elements.
if cannot reliably allocated: entire lease is considered finance lease,
unless it is clear that both are operating.
16. Classification of LeaseClassification of Lease
BKAF3063 – A141 16
Illustration 1:
Pajakan Co. (Lessor) and Trojan Co. (Lessee) entered into leasing
agreement on 1 January 2012. The term of lease is 15 years. The
lease agreement is non-cancellable and has minimum lease
payments with a present value of RM450,000. The lease
involves the use of machinery that has a 17 years estimated
useful life and is valued at RM460,000. The lease stated that
Trojan has an option to purchase the asset for RM20,000 at the
end of leased period.

Para 33 – 34:
☞ Lease payments - should be recognised as an expense in the
income statement on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
☞ Lease payments – should exclude costs for services such as
insurance and maintenance.
☞ No records on the assets or liability related to the value of
the assets (off balance sheet).

Illustration 2:
Pajakan Company (lessor) leased an equipment costing RM450,000 to
Trojan Company. The economic useful life of the asset is 20 years. The
lease is classified as operating lease with the lease term of 5 years
starting from 1/1/2011. Payments are made in advance as follows:
1/1/11 RM18,000
1/1/12 RM16,000
1/1/13 RM14,000
1/1/14 RM12,000
1/1/15 RM10,000
Asset is used evenly throughout the lease term. The accounting
period of both parties ends on 31 December.

☞ Interest: MLP − Lease Liabilities/FV of asset :
► Lease payment should be apportioned between the
finance charge and the reduction of the outstanding
liability.
► Finance charge – allocated to periods during the lease
term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of
interest on the remaining balance of the liability for
each period [ Para 27].
☞ Contingent rents: charged as expense as incurred.

Assume that Pajakan Company (lessor) and Trojan Company (lessee) sign a
lease agreement dated 1 January 2012. The terms are as follows:
Term of lease is 5 years, it is non-cancellable, requiring equal rental
payments of RM20,000 at the end of each year.
1. The FV = RM75,816 at the inception date, estimated useful life of 5 years,
and no residual value.
2. The lease contains no renewal options, and the equipment reverts to
Pajakan Co. at the termination of the lease.
3. Discount rate agreed by both parties is 10%.

owns.

c) ABC Bhd guaranteed to lessor that the leased asset would
have a residual value of RM5,000 at the end of lease term.
The FV of the equipment on 1/1/2011 was RM42,000 and have

Solution to Illustration 11:
1. SP = FV (SP > CA) =
Profit = 70,000 - 60,000 = 10,000
2. SP < FV (SP < CA)
Loss = 55,000 – 60,000 = 5,000 loss
3. SP < FV (SP < CA with lower lease payment)
Loss = 50,000 – 60,000 = 10,000 loss
