IFRS 16 Overview

IFRS 16 replaces IAS 17, the previous standard for lease accounting.

Objective of IFRS 16

The objective of IFRS 16 is to provide a single, consistent lessee accounting model for all leases.

Applicability of IFRS 16

IFRS 16 applies to all leases, except for leases of: • Biological assets • Insurance contracts • Leases of certain intangible assets (e.g., licenses of software, copyrights) • Leases of exploration for, or use of, minerals, oil, natural gas, and other non-regenerative resources.

A lessee can choose to account for lease payments as an expense on a straight-line basis, but this is only an exemption for leases with a lease term of 12 months or less, or for leases with an underlying asset of low value.
