BLM00220 - Introduction: Lease accounting: Finance lessor바카라 사이트™s balance sheet
This manual is being updated to reflect FRS 102 (2024 amendments). For guidance on the tax treatment of accounts prepared under IFRS 16 or the revised FRS 102, please refer to pages within the BLM50000 chapter.
A finance lessor's accounts show no physical asset in its balance sheet even though it owns the leased asset. Instead the lessor shows its financial investment in the lease (in substance, the 'loan' outstanding) as its asset. The 바카라 사이트˜loan바카라 사이트™ is equal to the remaining capital instalments due under the lease. At the outset the 'loan' will generally be equal to the cost of the asset bought by the lessor.
For accountancy purposes only the interest element in the rents is shown as income (gross earnings) of the finance lessor. The so-called 바카라 사이트˜capital바카라 사이트™ element reduces the lessor바카라 사이트™s net investment in the lease (the 바카라 사이트˜loan바카라 사이트™).
