Re: IFRS 16 -Lease Payments

I think it's best to start with 1/ lease term and 2/ lease payments, and then the assumptions for discount rate should be consistent. When you say that the extension option can be enforced by the Fund, then you must include period covered by this option in lease term and lease payments right? When m...

Re: IFRS 16 -Lease Payments

I see, as I wrote before, I would include them in a lease liability similarly to payments that depend on index/rate. The payments that you mentioned do not depend on future activity of a lessee or an underlying asset and therefore the is no reason to exclude them from lease liability

Re: IFRS 16 -Lease Payments

Re: IFRS 16 - Lease Term

So you think that this kind of extension options are enforceable? i.e. they can be exercised by a lessee without any consent by the lessor?
As I see it, if the price is not agreed, such an option is not enforceable, as you de facto need a consent by the lessor, as the price is a crucial factor here

Re: Cost of transferring materials from one warehouse to another

Hi, the point of this paragraph is to state that such expenses should not be added to the cost of inventories in the balance sheet.

The classification in a specific line in P/L is up to you. In my opinion it can be treated as a cost of fulfilling the project

Re: IFRS 16 -Lease components Separation

I think it's more a question on application of the local law. If the equipment is a part of the building, is it really against the law to enter into a 30-year "combined" lease? And if so, does it mean that there is no liability beyond this 7-year period to the lessor with respect to the eq...

Re: IFRS 15 - Inquiry from Projects Business

Note that you need to meet only one of the criteria for PO to be treated as satisfied over time. The entries that you provided are OK, except that a contract asset is not the same as WIP, you probably meant contract costs there

OK so you're saying that the conditions set out in IFRS 16.32 are met, i.e. the lease transfers ownership or the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects that the lessee will exercise a purchase option? then yes - it appears that the part attributable to land should not be depreciated.

re. depreciation - you must depreciate the part attributable to land as well, you're not the owner of the land as a lessee, but you recognise only the right-of-use of land, which is granted under the lease contract for finite period

As I understand it, a limited company should be separate from its owner when it comes to assets and liabilities.

Re: Property in director /shareholder name be shown as asset of limited company

No, the mere fact that the cash flows go through an entity does not mean control, even when taking substance over form. Important IFRS question here is whether the entity (taken separately from its owner) has the ability to direct the use of the property.
