Unit 3 Ind AS-116: Leases
Question 1
Scenario A:
A lessee enters into a lease with a nine-month non-cancellable term with an option to extend the
lease for four months. The lease does not have a purchase option. At the lease commencement
date, the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the extension option because the monthly lease
payments during the extension period are significantly below market rates. Whether the lessee
can take a short-term exemption in accordance with Ind AS-116?
Scenario B:
Assume the same facts as Scenario A except, at the lease commencement date, the lessee is
not reasonably certain to exercise the extension option because the monthly lease payments
during the optional extension period are at what the lessee expects to be market rates and there
are no other factors that would make exercise of the renewal option reasonably certain. Will your
answer be different in this case?
(Study Material)
Answer
Scenario A:
As the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise the extension option (Refer section 3.2 lease
term),the lease term is greater than 12 months (i.e., 13 months). Therefore, the lessee will not
account for the lease as a short-term lease.
Scenario B:
In this case, the lease term is less than 12 months, i.e., nine months. Thus, the lessee may
account for the said lease under the short-term lease exemption, i.e., it recognises lease
payments as an expense on either a straight-line basis over the lease term or another systematic
basis.

Question 2
Customer XYZ enters into a ten-year contract with Supplier ABC for the use of rolling stock
specifically designed for Customer XYZ.
The rolling stock is designed to transport materials used in Customer XYZ’s production process
and is not suitable for use by other customers. The rolling stock is not explicitly specified in the
contract but, Supplier ABC owns only one rolling stock that is suitable for Customer XYZ’s use. If
the rolling stock does not operate properly, the contract requires Supplier ABC to repair or
replace the rolling stock.
Whether there is an identified asset?

Answer
Yes, the said rolling stock is an identified asset.
Though the rolling stock is not explicitly specified in the contract (e.g., by serial number), it is
implicitly specified because Supplier ABC must use it to fulfil the contract.

Question 3
Customer XYZ enters into a ten-year contract with Supplier ABC for the use of a car. The
specification of the car is specified in the contract (i.e., brand, type, colour, options, etc.). At
inception of the contract, the car is not yet built.
(Study Material)
Answer
Yes, the said car is an identified asset.
Though the car cannot be identified at inception of the contract, it is implicitly specified at the
time the same will be made available to Customer XYZ.

Question 4
Scenario A:
An electronic data storage provider (supplier) provides services through a centralised data centre
that involve the use of a specified server (Server No. 10). The supplier maintains many identical
servers in a single accessible location and determines, at inception of the contract, that it is
permitted to and can easily substitute another server without the customer’s consent throughout
the period of use.
Further, the supplier would benefit economically from substituting an alternative asset, because
doing this would allow the supplier to optimise the performance of its network at only a nominal
cost. In addition, the supplier has made clear that it has negotiated this right of substitution as an
important right in the arrangement, and the substitution right affected the pricing of the
arrangement.
Whether the substitution rights are substantive and whether there is an identified asset?
Scenario B:
Assume the same facts as in Scenario A except that Server No. 10 is customised, and the
supplier does not have the practical ability to substitute the customised asset throughout the
period of use. Additionally, it is unclear whether the supplier would benefit economically from
sourcing a similar alternative asset.
Whether the substitution rights are substantive and whether there is an identified asset?
(Study Material)
Answer
Scenario A:
The customer does not have the right to use an identified asset because, at the inception of the
contract, the supplier has the practical ability to substitute the server and would benefit
economically from such a substitution. Thus, there is no identified asset.
However, if the customer could not readily determine whether the supplier had a substantive
Page 3
Chap. 7  Unit 3: Ind AS-116: Leases 329

substitution right (for e.g., there is insufficient transparency into the supplier’s operations), the
customer would presume the substitution right is not substantive and conclude that there is an
identified asset.
Scenario B:
The substitution right is not substantive, and Server No. 10 would be an identified asset because
the supplier does not have the practical ability to substitute the asset and there is no evidence of
economic benefit to the supplier for substituting the asset. In this case, neither of the conditions of
a substitution right is met (whereas both the conditions must be met for the supplier to have a
substantive substitution right). Therefore, Server No 10 will be considered as an identified asset.

Question 5
Customer XYZ enters into a 15-year contract with Supplier ABC for the right to use five fibres
within a fibre optic cable between Mumbai and Pune. The contract identifies five of the cable’s25
fibres for use by Customer XYZ. The five fibres are dedicated solely to Customer XYZ’s data for
the duration of the contract term. Assume that Supplier ABC does not have a substantive
substitution right.
(Study Material)
Answer
Yes, the said five fibres are identified assets because they are physically distinct and explicitly
specified in the contract.

Question 6
Scenario A:
Customer XYZ enters into a ten-year contract with Supplier ABC for the right to transport oil from
India to Bangladesh through Supplier ABC’s pipeline. The contract provides that Customer XYZ
will have the right to use of 95 % of the pipeline’s capacity throughout the term of the
arrangement.
Scenario B:
Assume the same facts as in Scenario A, except that Customer XYZ has the right to use 65% of
the pipeline’s capacity throughout the term of the arrangement.
(Study Material)
Answer
Scenario A:
Yes, the capacity portion of the pipeline is an identified asset.
While 95% of the pipeline’s capacity is not physically distinct from the remaining capacity of the
pipeline, it represents substantially all of the capacity of the entire pipeline and thereby
provides Customer XYZ with the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits
from use of the pipeline.
Page 4

Scenario B:
No, the capacity portion of the pipeline is NOT an identified asset.
Since 65% of the pipeline’s capacity is less than substantially all of the capacity of the pipeline,
Customer XYZ does not have the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits
from use of the pipeline.

Question 7
ABC Ltd enters into a contract with XYZ Ltd, which grants ABC Ltd exclusive rights to use a
specific grain storage facility over a five-year period in the months of May and June. During these
months, ABC Ltd has the right to decide which crops are placed in storage and when to remove
them. XYZ Ltd provides the loading and unloading services for the warehouse activities. During
the other ten months each year, XYZ Ltd has the right to determine how the warehouse will be
used.
Which party has the right to control the use of the identified asset during the period of use?
(Study Material)
Answer
In the above case, ABC Ltd has the right to control the use of the identified asset during the
period of use because they have the power to determine how the warehouse will be used during
the contractually defined usage periods. The analysis should focus on the rights and economics
of the use of the warehouse for the specified usage periods (May and June). During the period of
use, ABC Ltd has the rights to determine how much of a crop to place in storage, and the timing
of placing and removing it from storage. These rights are more significant to the economics of the
use of the asset than the loading and unloading services performed by XYZ Ltd during the same
period. ABC Ltd receives all of the economic benefit from use of the asset during those specified
time periods. Therefore, contract contains a lease for the specified period of term.

Question 8
Company MNO enters into a 15-year contract with Power Company PQR to purchase all of the
electricity produced by a new solar farm.PQR owns the solar farm and will receive tax credits
relating to the construction and ownership of the solar farm, and MNO will receive renewable
energy credits that accrue from use of the solar farm.).
Who has the right to substantial benefits from the solar farm?
(Study Material)
Answer
Company MNO has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the
solar farm over the 15-year period because it obtains:
♦ the electricity produced by the farm over the lease term — i.e. the primary product from use
of the asset; and
♦ the renewable energy credits — i.e. the by-product from use of the asset.
Although PQR receives economic benefits from the solar farm in the form of tax credits, these
economic benefits relate to the ownership of the solar farm. The tax credits do not relate to use of
the solar farm and therefore are not considered in this assessment.

Question 9
Customer X enters into a contract with Supplier Y to use a vehicle for a five-year period. The
vehicle is identified in the contract. Supplier Y cannot substitute another vehicle unless the
specified vehicle is not operational (for e.g., if it breaks down).Under the contract:
• Customer X operates the vehicle (i.e., drives the vehicle) or directs others to operate the
vehicle (for e.g., hires a driver).
• Customer X decides how to use the vehicle (within contractual limitations).For example,
throughout the period of use, Customer X decides where the vehicle goes, as well as when or
whether it is used and what it is used for. Customer X can also change these decisions
throughout the period of use.
• SupplierYprohibitscertainusesofthevehicle(fore.g.,movingitoverseas)and modifications to the
vehicle to protect its interest in the asset.
Whether Customer X has the right to direct the use of the vehicle throughout the period of lease?
(Study Material)
Answer
Yes, Customer X has the right to direct the use of the identified vehicle throughout the period of
use because it has the right to change how the vehicle is used, when or whether the vehicle is
used, where the vehicle goes and what the vehicle is used for.
Supplier Y’s limits on certain uses for the vehicle and modifications to it are considered
protective rights that define the scope of Customer X’s use of the asset, but do not affect the
assessment of whether Customer X directs the use of the asset.

Question 10
Entity A contracts with Supplier H to manufacture parts in a facility. Entity A designed the facility
and provided its specifications. Supplier H owns the facility and the land. Entity A specifies how
many parts it needs and when it needs the parts to be available. Supplier H operates the
machinery and makes all operating decisions including how and when the parts are to be
produced, as long as it meets the contractual requirements to deliver the specified number on the
specified date. Assuming supplier H cannot substitute the facility and hence is an identified asset.
Which party has the right to control the use of the identified asset (i.e., equipment) during the
period of use?
(Study Material)
Answer
Entity A does not direct the use of the asset that most significantly drives the economic benefits
because Supplier H determines how and when the equipment is operated once the contract is
signed. Therefore, Supplier H has the right to control the use of the identified asset during the
period of use. Although Entity A stipulates the product to be provided and has input into the initial
decisions regarding the use of the asset through its involvement in the design of the asset, it does
not have decision making rights over how and for what purpose the asset will be used over the
asset during the period of use. This arrangement is a supply agreement, not a lease.

Question 11
Entity L enters into a five—year contract with Company A, a ship owner, for the use of an
identified ship. Entity L decides whether and what cargo will be transported, and when and to
which ports the ship will sail throughout the period of use, subject to restrictions specified in the
contract. These restrictions prevent Entity L from sailing the ship into waters at a high risk of
piracy or carrying explosive materials as cargo. Company A operates and maintains the ship, and
is responsible for safe passage.
Who has the right to direct the use of the ship during the period of use?
(Study Material)
Answer
Entity L has the right to direct the use of the ship. The contractual restrictions are protective
rights. In the scope of its right of use, Entity L determines how and for what purpose the ship is
used throughout the five — year period because it decides whether, where and when the ship
sails, as well as the cargo that it will transport. Entity L has the right to change these decisions
throughout the period of use. Therefore, the contract contains a lease.

Question 12
Scenario A:
A lessee enters a lease of an excavator and the related accessories (for e.g., excavator
attachments) that are used for mining purposes. The lessee is a local mining company that
intends to use the excavator at a copper mine. How many lease and non-lease components are
there?
Scenario B:
Assume the same facts as in Scenario A, except that the contract also conveys the right to use
an additional loading truck. This loading truck could be deployed by the lessee for other uses (for
e.g., to transport iron ores at another mine).
(Study Material)
Answer
Scenario A:
The lessee would be unable to benefit from the use of the excavator without also using the
accessories. Therefore, the excavator is dependent upon the accessories. Thus, from the
perspective of the lessee, the contract contains one lease component.
Scenario B:
The lessee can benefit from the loading truck on its own or together with other readily available
resources because the loading truck could be deployed for other uses independent of the
excavator. The lessee can also benefit from the use of the excavator on its own or together with
other readily available resources.
Thus, from the perspective of the lessee, the contract contains two lease components, viz., a
lease of the excavator (together with the accessories) and a lease of the loading truck.

Question 13
Entity L rents an office building from Landlord M for a term of 10 years. The rental contract
stipulates that the office is fully furnished and has a newly installed and tailored HVAC system. It
also requires Landlord M to perform all common area maintenance (CAM) during the term of the
arrangement. Entity L makes single monthly rental payment and does not pay for the
maintenance separately. The office building has a useful life of 40 years and the HVAC system
and office furniture each has a life of 15 years.
What are the units of account in the lease?
(Study Material)
Answer
There are three components in the arrangement – the building assets (office building and HVAC),
the office furniture, and the maintenance agreement.
The office building and HVAC system are one lease component because they cannot function
independently of each other. The HVAC system was designed and tailored specifically to be
integrated into the office building and cannot be removed and used in another building without
incurring substantial costs. These building assets are a lease component because they are
identified assets for which Entity L directs the use.
The office furniture functions independently and can be used on its own. It is also a lease
component because it is a group of distinct assets for which Entity L directs the use.
The maintenance agreement is a non-lease component because it is a contract for service and
not for the use of a specified asset.

Question 14
Scenario A:
A lessee enters into a five-year lease of equipment, with fixed annual payments of `10,000. The
contract contains fixed annual payments as follows: `8,000 for rent, `1,500 for maintenance and
`500 of administrative tasks. How the consideration would be allocated?
Scenario B:
Assume the fact pattern as in scenario A except that, in addition, the contract requires the lessee
to pay for the restoration of the equipment to its original condition. How the consideration would
be allocated?
(Study Material)
Answer
Scenario A:
The contract contains two components, viz., a lease component (lease of equipment) and a non-
lease component (maintenance). The amount paid for administrative tasks does not transfer a
good or service to the lessee.
Assuming that the lessee does not elect to use the practical expedient as per para 15 of Ind AS
116, both the lessee and the less or account for the lease of equipment and maintenance
components separately and the administration charge is included in the total consideration to be
allocated between those components. Therefore, the total consideration in the contract of
`50,000 will be allocated to the lease component (equipment) and the non-lease component
(maintenance).
Page 8

Scenario B:
The contract still contains two components, viz., a lease component (lease of equipment) and a
non-lease component (maintenance).Similar to the amount paid for administrative tasks, the
restoration does not transfer a good or service to the lessee as it is only performed at the end of
the lease term.
Therefore, the total consideration in the contract of `50,000 will be allocated to the lease
component (equipment) and the non-lease component (maintenance).

Question 15
A lessee enters into a lease of an equipment. The contract stipulates the less or will perform
maintenance of the leased equipment and receive consideration for that maintenance service.
The contract includes the following fixed prices for the lease and non-lease component:
Lease `80,000
Maintenance `10,000
Total `90,000
Assume the stand-alone prices cannot be readily observed, so the lessee makes estimates,
maximising the use of observable information, of the lease and non-lease components, as
follows:
Lease `85,000
Maintenance `15,000
Total `1,00,000
In the given scenario, assuming lessee has not opted the practical expedient, how will the lessee
allocate the consideration to lease and non-lease component?
(Study Material)
Answer
The stand-alone price for the lease component represents 85% (i.e., ` 85,000/` 1,00,000) of
total estimated stand-alone prices. The lessee allocates the consideration in the contract (i.e.,
` 90,000), as follows:
Lease * ` 76,500
Maintenance ** ` 13,500
Total `90,000
* `90,000 x 85%

Question 16
Scenario A:
Entity ABC enters into a lease for equipment that includes a non-cancellable term of six years
and a two-year fixed-priced renewal option with future lease payments that are intended to
approximate market rates at lease inception. There are no termination penalties or other factors
indicating that Entity ABC is reasonably certain to exercise the renewal option. What is the lease
term?
Page 9

Scenario B:
Entity XYZ enters into a lease for a building that includes a non-cancellable term of eight years
and a two-year, market-priced renewal option. Before it takes possession of the building, Entity
XYZ pays for leasehold improvements. The leasehold improvements are expected to have
significant value at the end of eight years, and that value can only be realised through continued
occupancy of the leased property. What is the lease term?
Scenario C:
Entity PQR enters into a lease for an identified retail space in a shopping centre. The retail space
will be available to Entity PQR for only the months of October, November and December during a
non-cancellable term of seven years. The lessor agrees to provide the same retail space for each
of the seven years. What is the lease term?
(Study Material)
Answer
Scenario A:
At the lease commencement date, the lease term is six years (being the non-cancellable period).
The renewal period of two years is not taken into consideration since it is mentioned that Entity
ABC is not reasonably certain to exercise the option.
Scenario B:
At the lease commencement, Entity XYZ determines that it is reasonably certain to exercise the
renewal option because it would suffer a significant economic penalty if it abandoned the
leasehold improvements at the end of the initial non-cancellable period of eight years. Thus, at
the lease commencement, Entity XYZ concludes that the lease term is ten years (being eight
years of non-cancellable period plus the renewal period of two years where the lessee is
reasonably certain to exercise the option).
Scenario C:
At the lease commencement date, the lease term is 21 months (three months per year over the
seven annual periods as specified in the contract), i.e., the period over which Entity PQR controls
the right to use the underlying asset.

Question 17
Retailer M enters into a five-year lease for a building floor, followed by two successive five-year
renewal options. On the commencement date, Retailer M is not reasonably certain to exercise the
extension option. At the end of third year, Retailer M extended to include another floor from year
4 due to a business acquisition. For this purpose, the lessee concludes a separate seven-year
lease for an additional floor in the building already leased. Is Retailer M required to reassess the
lease term in this case?
(Study Material)
Answer
Ind AS 116 requires a lessee to reassess the lease term if there is change in business decision of
the company which is directly relevant to exercising or not exercising an option to renew/extend
the lease. In the given case, the Retailer M at the end of third year has extended to include
another floor in the same building on account of acquiring another company. As Retailer M has
entered into fresh lease of another floor for a seven-year term, it is reasonably certain to exercise
the renewal option of original lease for a further five-year term. Hence Retailer M will have to
reassess the lease term at the end of third year.

(Study Material)
Answer
In the given case, as per Ind AS 116, the announcement by the government to discontinue the

What are the fixed lease payments for purposes of classifying the lease?
(Study Material)
Answer
The fixed lease payments are ` 2,00,000.Although real estate taxes are explicitly stated in the
lease contract, they do not represent a separate non-lease component as they do not provide a
separate good or service. The right to use the office building is the only component. The annual

Question 20
Entity Q enters into a seven-year lease for a piece of machinery. The contract sets out the lease

month.
– If Q does not use the machinery within a given month, then an amount of 1,000 accrues
for that month.
What is considered as lease payment in this case?
(Study Material)
Answer
Q considers the contract and notes that although the lease payments contain variability based on
usage, and there is a realistic possibility that Q may not use the machinery in some months, a
monthly payment of 1,000 is unavoidable. Accordingly, this is an in-substance fixed payment, and
is included in the measurement of the lease liability.

previous rental rate on each anniversary of the lease commencement date. What are the lease
payments for purposes of measuring lease liability?
(Study Material)
Answer
In the given case, the lease payments for purposes of classifying the lease are the fixed monthly
payments of ` 1 lakh plus the minimum annual increase of 2% of the previous rental rate. Entity P
is required to pay no less than a 2% increase regardless of the level of sales activity; therefore,
this minimum level of increase is in substance fixed lease payment.

(Study Material)
Answer
The lease contains in substance fixed payments of `10,00,000 per year, which are included in the
initial measurement of the lease liability. The additional `5,00,000 that Company N expects to pay

(Study Material)
Answer
At the lease commencement date, the lease payments are ` 1,000 per year for 10 years. The
entity does not take into consideration the potential future changes in the index. At the end of
year one, the payments have not changed and hence, the liability is not updated.

Question 24
Entity XYZ is a medical equipment manufacturer and a supplier of the related consumables.
Customer ABC operates a medical centre. Under the agreement entered into by both parties,
Entity XYZ grants Customer ABC the right to use a medical laboratory machine at no cost and
Customer ABC purchases consumables for use in the equipment from Entity XYZ at `100 each.
The consumables can only be used for that equipment and Customer ABC cannot use other
Page 12

consumables as substitutes. There is no minimum purchase amount required in the contract.
Based on its historical experience, Customer ABC estimates that it is highly likely to purchase at
least 8,000 units of consumables annually. Customer ABC has appropriately assessed that the
arrangement contains a lease of medical equipment. There are no residual value guarantees or
other forms of consideration included in the contract. Whether these payments affect the
calculation of lease liability and ROU Asset? How does Entity XYZ and Customer ABC would
allocate these lease payments?
(Study Material)
Answer
There are two components in the arrangement, viz., a lease of equipment and the purchase of
consumables.
Even though Customer ABC may believe that it is highly unlikely to purchase lesser than 8,000
units of consumables every year, in this example, there are no lease payments for purposes of
initial measurement (for Entity XYZ and Customer ABC) and lease classification (for Entity XYZ).
Entity XYZ and Customer ABC would allocate the payments associated with the future payments
to the lease and consumables component of the contract.

Question 25
Entity A enters into a five-year lease of an office building. The lease payments are `5,00,000 per
year and the contract includes an additional water charge calculated as `0.50 per litre consumed.
Payments are due at the end of year. Entity A elects to apply the practical expedient to combine
lease and non-lease components.
(Study Material)
Answer
As stated above, payments are due at the end of the year. Entity A elects to apply the practical
expedient not to separate lease and non-lease components.
At the commencement date, Entity A measures the lease liability as the present value of the fixed
lease payments (i.e. five annual payments of 5,00,000). Although Entity A has elected to apply
the practical expedient to combine non-lease components (i.e. water charges) with the lease
component, Entity A excludes the non-lease component from its lease liability because they are
variable payments that depend on usage. That is, the nature of the costs does not become fixed
just because Entity A has elected not to separate them from the fixed lease payments. Entity A
recognises the payments for water – as a variable lease payment – in profit or loss when they are
incurred.
In contrast, if B does not elect to apply the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease
components, then it recognises the payments for water – as an operating expense – in profit or
loss when they are incurred.

Question 27
Entity L enters into a lease for 10 years, with a single lease payment payable at the beginning of

LIBOR each year. At the date of commencement of the lease, LIBOR is 2 per cent.
Assume that the interest rate implicit in the lease is 5 per cent. How lease liability is initially
measured?
(Study Material)
Answer
In the given case, the lease payments depend on a rate (i.e., LIBOR) and hence is included in
measuring lease liability, As per Ind AS 116, the lease payments should initially be measured
using the rate (i.e. LlBOR) as at the commencement date. LIBOR at that date is 2 per cent;
therefore, in measuring the lease liability, it is assumed that each year the payments will increase
by 2 per cent, as follows
Year Lease Payment Discount factor @ 5% PV of lease payments

Question 28
Entity Y and Entity Z execute a 12-year lease of a railcar with the following terms on January
1,2016:
♦ The lease commencement date is February 1, 2016.
♦ Entity Y must pay Entity Z the first monthly rental payment of `10,000 upon execution of the
lease.
♦ Entity Z will pay Entity Y `50,000 cash incentive to enter into the lease payable upon lease
execution.
Page 14

Entity Y incurred `1,000 of initial direct costs, which are payable on February 1, 2016. Entity Y
calculated the initial lease liability as the present value of the lease payments discounted using its
incremental borrowing rate because the rate implicit in the lease could not be readily determined;
the initial lease liability is `850,000.
How would Lessee Company measure and record this lease?
(Study Material)
Answer
Entity Y would calculate the right-of-use asset as follows: `
Initial measurement of lease liability 8,50,000
Lease payments made to Entity Z at or before the commencement date 10,000
Lease incentives received from Entity Z (50,000)
Initial direct cost 1,000
Initial measurement of right-of-use asset 8,11,000

Question 29
Company H leases an aircraft for a period of 5 years. The aircraft must undergo a planned check
after every 100,000 flight hours. At the end of the lease, company H must have a check
performed (or refund the costs to the lessor), irrespective of the actual number of flight hours.
What are the lease payments for purposes of calculating ROU asset?
(Study Material)
Answer
In the given case, the legal requirement to perform a check after every 1,00,000 flight hours does
not directly lead to an obligation as it depends on future circumstances. However, as the check
must be carried out at the end of the lease irrespective of the actual number of flight hours gives
rise to an obligation.
As a result, company H has to recognize a provision for the costs of the final check (“present
value of the expected cost”) at the beginning of the lease term. At the same time, these costs
must be included in the cost of the right-of-use (ROU) asset pursuant to para 24(d) of Ind AS 116.

Question 30
Entity ABC (lessee) enters into a three-year lease of equipment. Entity ABC agrees to make the
following annual payments at the end of each year:
`20,000 in year one
`30,000 in year two
`50,000 in year three.
For simplicity purposes, there are no other elements to the lease payments (like purchase
options, lease incentives from the lessor or initial direct costs).Assumed a discount rate of 12%
(which is Entity ABC’s incremental borrowing rate because the interest rate implicit in the lease
cannot be readily determined). Entity ABC depreciates the ROU Asset on a straight-line basis
over the lease term.
How would Entity ABC would account for the said lease under Ind AS 116?

Answer
At the commencement date, Entity ABC would initially recognise ROU Asset and the
corresponding Lease Liability of `77,364 which is calculated as follows:

Question 31
Company EFG enters into a property lease with Entity H. The initial term of the lease is 10 years
with a 5- year renewal option. The economic life of the property is 40 years and the fair value of
the leased property is `50 Lacs. Company EFG has an option to purchase the property at the end
of the lease term for `30 lacs. The first annual payment is `5 lacs with an increase of 3% every
year thereafter. The implicit rate of interest is 9.04%. Entity H gives Company EFG an incentive of
`2 lacs (payable at the beginning of year 2), which is to be used for normal tenant improvement.
Company EFG is reasonably certain to exercise that purchase option. How would EFG measure
the right-of-use asset and lease liability over the lease term?
(Study Material)
Answer
As per Ind AS 116, Company EFG would first calculate the lease liability as the present value of
the annual lease payments, less the lease incentive paid in year 2, plus the exercise price of the
purchase option using the rate implicit in the lease of approximately 9.04%.
PV of lease payments, less lease incentive (W.N. 1) `37,39,648
PV of purchase option at end of lease term (W.N. 2) `12,60,000
Total lease liability `49,99,648 or `50,00,000 (approx.)
The right-of-use asset is equal to the lease liability because there is no adjustment required for
initial direct costs incurred by Company EFG, lease payments made at or before the lease
commencement date, or lease incentives received prior to the lease commencement date.
Page 17

Entity EFG would record the following journal entry on the lease commencement date.
Right-of-use Asset Dr. ` 50,00,000
To Lease Liability ` 50,00,000
To record ROU asset and lease liability at the commencement date.
Since the purchase option is reasonably certain to be exercised, EFG would amortize the right-of-
use asset over the economic life of the underlying asset (40 years). Annual amortization expense
would be `1,25,000 (`50,00,000/40 years)
Interest expense on the lease liability would be calculated as shown in the following table. This

Although the lease was for 10 years, the asset had an economic life of 40 years. When Company
EFG exercises its purchase option at the end of the 10-year lease, it would have fully
extinguished its lease liability but continue depreciating the asset over the remaining useful life.

Question 32
Entity W entered into a contract for lease of retail store with Entity J on January 01/01/2017. The
initial term of the lease is 5 years with a renewal option of further 3 years. The annual payments
for initial term and renewal term is `100,000 and `110,000 respectively. The annual lease
payment will increase based on the annual increase in the CPI at the end of the preceding year.
For example, the payment due on 01/01/18 will be based on the CPI available at 31/12/17.
Entity W’s incremental borrowing rate at the lease inception date and as at 01/01/2020 is 5% and
6% respectively and the CPI at lease commencement date and as at 01/01/2020 is 120 and 125
respectively.
At the lease commencement date, Entity W did not have a significant economic incentive to
exercise the renewal option. In the first quarter of 2020, Entity W installed unique lease
improvements into the retail store with an estimated five-year economic life. Entity W determined
that it would only recover the cost of the improvements if it exercises the renewal option, creating
a significant economic incentive to extend.
Is Entity W required to remeasure the lease in the first quarter of 2020?
(Study Material)
Answer
Since Entity W is now reasonably certain that it will exercise its renewal option, it is required to
remeasure the lease in the first quarter of 2020.

To remeasure the lease liability, Entity W would first calculate the present value of the future
lease payments for the new lease term (using the updated discount rate of 6%). The following
table shows the present value of the future lease payments based on an updated CPI of 125.
Since the initial lease payments were based on a CPI of 120, the CPI has increased by 4%
approx. As a result, Entity W would increase the future lease payments by 4%. As shown in the
table, the revised lease liability is ` 490,589.

Question 33
Lessee enters into a 10-year lease for 2,000 square metres of office space. At the beginning of
Year 6, Lessee and Lessor agree to amend the original lease for the remaining five years to
include an additional 3,000 square metres of office space in the same building. The additional
space is made available for use by Lessee at the end of the second quarter of Year 6. The
increase in total consideration for the lease is commensurate with the current market rate for the
new 3,000 square metres of office space, adjusted for the discount that Lessee receives
reflecting that Lessor does not incur costs that it would otherwise have incurred if leasing the
same space to a new tenant (for example, marketing costs).
How should the said modification be accounted for?
(Study Material)
Answer
Lessee accounts for the modification as a separate lease, separate from the original 10-year
lease because the modification grants Lessee an additional right to use an underlying asset, and
the increase in consideration for the lease is commensurate with the stand-alone price of the
additional right-of-use adjusted to reflect the circumstances of the contract. In this example, the
additional underlying asset is the new 3,000 square metres of office space. Accordingly, at the
commencement date of the new lease (at the end of the second quarter of Year 6), Lessee
recognises a ROU Asset and a lease liability relating to the lease of the additional 3,000 square
metres of office space. Lessee does not make any adjustments to the accounting for the original
lease of 2,000 square metres of office space as a result of this modification.

cannot be readily determined. Lessee’s incremental borrowing rate at the commencement date is
6% p.a.At the beginning of Year 7, Lessee and Lessor agree to amend the original lease by
extending the contractual lease term by four years. The annual lease payments are unchanged
(i.e., `1,00,000 payable at the end of each year from Year 7 to Year 14). Lessee’s incremental
borrowing rate at the beginning of Year 7 is 7% p.a.

At the effective date of the modification (at the beginning of Year 7), Lessee remeasures thelease
liability based on:
(a) An eight-year remaining lease term
(b) Annual payments of ` 1,00,000 and
(c) Lessee’s incremental borrowing rate of 7% p.a.
The modified lease liability equals ` 5,97,100 (W.N.1). The lease liability immediately before the
modification (including the recognition of the interest expense until the end of Year 6) is `
3,46,355 (W.N.3). Lesseere cognises the difference between the carrying amount of the modified
lease liability and the carrying amount of the lease liability immediately before the modification

9 30,000 0.823 24,690
10 30,000 0.784 23,520
Total 1,29,900
Lessee determines the proportionate decrease in the carrying amount of the ROU Asset on the
basis of the remaining ROU Asset (i.e., 2,500 square metres corresponding to 50% of the original
ROU Asset).
50% of the pre-modification ROU Asset (` 1,83,975) is ` 91,987.50.
50% of the pre-modification lease liability (` 2,10,546) is ` 1,05,273.
Consequently, Lessee reduces the carrying amount of the ROU Asset by ` 91,987.50 and the
carrying amount of the lease liability by ` 1,05,273. Lessee recognises the difference between the
decrease in the lease liability and the decrease in the ROU Asset (` 1,05,273 – ` 91,987.50 =
` 13,285.50) as a gain in profit or loss at the effective date of the modification (at the beginning of
Year 6).
Lessee recognises the difference between the remaining lease liability of ` 1,05,273 and the
modified lease liability of ` 1,29,900 (which equals ` 24,627) as an adjustment to the ROU Asset
reflecting the change in the consideration paid for the lease and the revised discount rate.

Question 36
Lessee enters into a 10-year lease for 5,000 square metres of office space. At the beginning of
Year 6, Lessee and Lessor agree to amend the original lease for the remaining five years to
reduce the lease payments from `1,00,000 per year to ` 95,000 per year. The interest rate
implicit in the lease cannot be readily determined. Lessee’s incremental borrowing rate at the
commencement date is 6% p.a. Lessee’s incremental borrowing rate at the beginning of Year 6 is
7% p.a. The annual lease payments are payable at the end of each year.

Answer
In the given case, Lessee calculates the ROU asset and the lease liabilities before modification
as follows:

Question 37
payments are `1,00,000 payable at the end of each year. The interest rate implicit in the lease
6% p.a.
At the beginning of Year 6, Lessee and Lessor agree to amend the original lease to:
(a) include an additional 1,500 square metres of space in the same building starting from the
beginning of Year 6 and
(b) reduce the lease term from 10 years to eight years. The annual fixed payment for the
3,500 square metres is `1,50,000 payable at the end of each year (from Year 6 to Year
8). Lessee’s incremental borrowing rate at the beginning of Year 6 is 7% p.a.
The consideration for the increase in scope of 1,500 square metres of space is not
commensurate with the stand-alone price for that increase adjusted to reflect the circumstances
of the contract. Consequently, Lessee does not account for the increase in scope that adds the
right to use an additional 1,500 square metres of space as a separate lease.

3 1,50,000 0.816 1,22,400
The modified liability equals ` 3,93,600, of which (a) ` 1,31,200 relates to the increase of
` 50,000 in the annual lease payments from Year 6 to Year 8 and (refer note 1) (b) ` 2,62,400
relates to the remaining three annual lease payments of ` 1,00,000 from Year 6 to Year 8 with
reduction of lease term (Refer Note 3)
Decrease in the lease term:
At the effective date of the modification (at the beginning of Year 6), the pre-modification ROU
Asset is ` 3,67,950. Lessee determines the proportionate decrease in the carrying amount of the
ROU Asset based on the remaining ROU Asset for the original 2,000 square metres of office
space (i.e., a remaining three-year lease term rather than the original five-year lease term). The
remaining ROU Asset for the original 2,000 square metres of office space is `2,20,770 [i.e., `
(3,67,950/5) x 3 years].
At the effective date of the modification (at the beginning of Year 6), the pre-modification lease
liability is ` 4,21,090. The remaining lease liability for the original 2,000 square metres of office
space is ` 2,67,300 (i.e., present value of three annual lease payments of ` 1,00,000, discounted
at the original discount rate of 6% p.a.) (refer note 2).
Consequently, Lessee reduces the carrying amount of the ROU Asset by `1,47,180 (` 3,67,950 –
` 2,20,770), and the carrying amount of the lease liability by ` 1,53,790 (` 4,21,090– ` 2,67,300).
Page 27

Lessee recognises the difference between the decrease in the lease liability and the decrease in
the ROU Asset (` 1,53,790 – ` 1,47,180 = ` 6,610) as a gain in profit or loss atthe effective date
of the modification (at the beginning of Year 6).

At the effective date of the modification (at the beginning of Year 6), Lessee recognises the effect
of the remeasurement of the remaining lease liability reflecting the revised discount rate of 7%
p.a., which is ` 4,900 (`2,67,300 – `2,62,400*), as an adjustment to the ROU Asset.

Increase in the leased space:
At the commencement date of the lease for the additional 1,500 square metres of space (at the
beginning of Year 6), Lessee recognises the increase in the lease liability related to the increase
in leased space of ` 1,31,200 (i.e., present value of three annual lease payments of `
50,000,discounted at the revised interest rate of 7% p.a.) as an adjustment to the ROU Asset.

Question 38
A Lessor enters into a 10-year lease of equipment with Lessee. The equipment is not specialised
in nature and is expected to have alternative use to Lessor at the end of the 10-year lease term.
Under the lease:
♦ Lessor receives annual lease payments of `15,000, payable at the end of the year
♦ Lessor expects the residual value of the equipment to be `50,000 at the end of the 10-
year lease term
♦ Lessee provides a residual value guarantee that protects Lessor from the first `30,000 of
loss for a sale at a price below the estimated residual value at the end of the lease term
(i.e., `50,000)
♦ The equipment has an estimated remaining economic life of 15 years, a carrying amount
of `1,00,000 and a fair value of `1,11,000
♦ The lease does not transfer ownership of the underlying asset to Lessee at the end of the
lease term or contain an option to purchase the underlying asset
♦ The interest rate implicit in the lease is 10.078%.
How should the Lessor account for the same in its books of accounts?
(Study Material)
Answer
Lessor shall classify the lease as a FINANCE LEASE because the sum of the present value of
lease payments amounts to substantially all of the fair value of the underlying asset.
At lease commencement, Lessor accounts for the finance lease, as follows:
Net investment in the lease ` 1,11,000(a)
Cost of goods sold ` 92,340(b)
Revenue ` 1,03,340(c)
Property held for lease ` 1,00,000(d)
To record the net investment in the finance lease and derecognise the underlying asset.
(a) The net investment in the lease consists of:
(1) the present value of 10 annual payments of `15,000 plus the guaranteed residual
value of `30,000, both discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease, which
equals `1,03,340 (i.e., the lease payment) (Refer note 1) AND
(2) the present value of unguaranteed residual asset of `20,000, which equals `7,660
(Refer note 2).
Note that the net investment in the lease is subject to the same considerations as
other assets in classification as current or non-current assets in a classified balance
sheet.
(b) Cost of goods sold is the carrying amount of the equipment of `1,00,000 (less) the
present value of the unguaranteed residual asset of `7,660.
(c) Revenue equals the lease receivable.
(d) The carrying amount of the underlying asset.
At lease commencement, Lessor recognises selling profit of ` 11,000 which is calculated as =
lease payment of ` 1,03,340 – [carrying amount of the asset (` 1,00,000) – net of any
unguaranteed residual asset (` 7,660) ie which equals ` 92,340]

(h) Interest income equals 10.078% of the net investment in the lease at the beginning of
each year. For e.g., Year 1 annual interest income is calculated as `1,11,000 (initial net
investment) x 10.078%.

Question 39
Entity ABC (original lessee/intermediate lessor) leases a building for five years. The building has
an economic life of 40 years. Entity ABC subleases the building for four years.
How should the said sublease be classified by Entity ABC?
(Study Material)
Answer
The sublease is classified with reference to the ‘ROU Asset’ in the head lease (and NOT the
‘underlying building’ of the head lease).Hence, when assessing the useful life criterion, the
sublease term of four years is compared with five-year ROU Asset in the head lease (NOT
compared with 40-year economic life of the building) and accordingly may result in the sublease
being classified as a finance lease.
  
Question 40
Head lease:
An intermediate lessor enters into a five-year lease for 10,000 square metres of office space (the
head lease) with Entity XYZ (the head lessor).
Sublease:
At the beginning of Year 3, the intermediate lessor subleases the 10,000 square metres of office
space for the remaining lease term i.e three years of the head lease to a sub-lessee.
How should the said sublease be classified and accounted for by the Intermediate Lessor?
(Study Material)
Answer
The intermediate lessor classifies the sublease by reference to the ROU Asset arising from the
head lease (i.e., in this case, comparing the three-year sublease with the five-year ROU Asset in
Page 32

the head lease). The intermediate lessor classifies the sublease as a finance lease, having
considered the requirements of Ind AS 116 (i.e., one of the criteria of ‘useful life’ for a lease to be
classified as a finance lease).
When the intermediate lessor enters into a sublease, the intermediate lessor:
(i) derecognises the ROU asset relating to the head lease that it transfers to the sub lessee
and recognises the net investment in the sublease;
(ii) recognises any difference between the ROU asset and the net investment in the
sublease in profit or loss; AND
(iii) retains the lease liability relating to the head lease in its balance sheet, which represents
the lease payments owed to the head lessor.
During the term of the sublease, the intermediate lessor recognises both
- finance income on the sublease AND
- interest expense on the head lease.

Question 41
Head lease:
An intermediate lessor enters into a five-year lease for 10,000 square metres of office space (the
head lease) with Entity XYZ (the head lessor).
Sublease:
At the commencement of the head lease, the intermediate lessor subleases the 10,000 square
metres of office space for two years to a sub-lessee.
How should the said sublease be classified and accounted for by the Intermediate Lessor?
(Study Material)
Answer
The intermediate lessor classifies the sublease by reference to the ROU Asset arising from the
head lease (i.e., in this case, comparing the two-year sublease with the five-year ROU Asset in
the head lease). The intermediate lessor classifies the sublease as an operating lease, having
considered the requirements of Ind AS 116 (i.e., one of the criteria of ‘useful life’ for a lease to be
classified as a finance lease and since, it is not satisfied, classified the same as an operating
lease).
When the intermediate lessor enters into the sublease, the intermediate lessor retains:
- the lease liability AND
- the ROU asset
both relating to the head lease in its balance sheet.
During the term of the sublease, the intermediate lessor:
(a) recognises a depreciation charge for the ROU asset and interest on the lease liability;
AND
(b) recognises lease income from the sublease.
Sub-lessee Accounting:
A sub-lessee accounts for its lease in the same manner as any other lease (i.e., as a new lease
subject to Ind AS 116’s recognition and measurement provisions).

Question 42
An entity (Seller-lessee) sells a building to another entity (Buyer-lessor) for cash of `30,00,000.
Immediately before the transaction, the building is carried at a cost of `15,00,000. At the same
time, Seller-lessee enters into a contract with Buyer-lessor for the right to use the building for 20
years, with annual payments of `2,00,000 payable at the end of each year.
The terms and conditions of the transaction are such that the transfer of the building by Seller-
lessee satisfies the requirements for determining when a performance obligation is satisfied in Ind
AS 115 Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
The fair value of the building at the date of sale is `27,00,000. Initial direct costs, if any, are to be
ignored. The interest rate implicit in the lease is 12% p.a., which is readily determinable by Seller-
lessee.
Buyer-lessor classifies the lease of the building as an operating lease.
How should the said transaction be accounted by the Seller-lessee and the Buyer-lessor?
(Study Material)
Answer
Considering facts of the case, Seller-lessee and buyer-lessor account for the transaction as a
sale and leaseback.
Firstly, since the consideration for the sale of the building is not at fair value, Seller-lessee and
Buyer - lessor make adjustments to measure the sale proceeds at fair value. Thus, the amount of
the excess sale price of `3,00,000 (as calculated below) is recognised as additional financing
provided by Buyer-lessor to Seller-lessee.
Sale Price: 30,00,000
Less: Fair Value (at the date of sale): (27,00,000)
Additional financing provided by Buyer-lessor to Seller-lessee 3,00,000
Next step would be to calculate the present value of the annual payments which amounts to
` 14,94,000 (calculated considering 20 payments of ` 2,00,000 each, discounted at 12% p.a.) of
which `3,00,000 relates to the additional financing (as calculated above) and balance `11,94,000
relates to the lease—corresponding to 20 annual payments of ` 40,164 and ` 1,59,836,
respectively (refer calculations below).
Proportion of annual lease payments:
Present value of lease payments (as calculated above) (A) 14,94,000
Additional financing provided (as calculated above) (B) 3,00,000
Relating to the Additional financing provided (C) = (E x B/A) 40,160
Relating to the Lease (D) = (E – C) 1,59,840
Annual payments (at the end of each year) (E) 2,00,000
Seller-Lessee:
At the commencement date, Seller-lessee measures the ROU asset arising from the leaseback of
the building at the proportion of the previous carrying amount of the building that relates to the
right-of-use retained by Seller-lessee, calculated as follows:
Carrying Amount (A) 15,00,000
Fair Value (at the date of sale) (B) 27,00,000
Discounted lease payments for the 20-year ROU asset (C) 11,94,000
ROU Asset [(A/B) x C] 6,63,333
Page 34

Seller-lessee recognises only the amount of the gain that relates to the rights transferred to
Buyer- lessor, calculated as follows:
Fair Value (at the date of sale) (A) 27,00,000
Carrying Amount (B) 15,00,000
Discounted lease payments for the 20-year ROU asset (C) 11,94,000
Gain on sale of building (D) = (A - B) 12,00,000
Relating to the right to use the building retained by Seller-lessee (E) = [(D/A) x C] 5,30,667
Relating to the rights transferred to Buyer-lessor (D - E) 6,69,333
At the commencement date, Seller-lessee accounts for the transaction, as follows:
Cash Dr. 30,00,000
To Building 15,00,000
To Financial Liability 14,94,000
To Gain on rights transferred 6,69,333
Buyer-Lessor:
At the commencement date, Buyer-lessor accounts for the transaction, as follows:
Building Dr. 27,00,000
Financial Asset (20 payments of ` 40,160 discounted @ 12% p.a.) 3,00,000
(approx.) Dr.
To Cash 30,00,000
After the commencement date, Buyer-lessor accounts for the lease by treating ` 1,59,840 of the
annual payments of ` 2,00,000 as lease payments. The remaining ` 40,160 of annual payments
received from Seller-lessee are accounted for as:
(a) payments received to settle the financial asset of ` 3,00,000 AND

Question 43
A retailer (lessee) entered into 3-year lease of retail space beginning at 1 April 2017 with three
annual lease payments of `2,00,000 due on 31 March 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively. The
lease is classified as an operating lease under Ind AS 17. The retailer initially applies Ind AS 116
for the first time in the annual period beginning at 1 April 2019. The incremental borrowing rate at
the date of the initial application (i.e., 1 April 2019) is 10% p.a. and at the commencement of the
lease (i.e., 1 April 2017) was 12% p.a. The ROU asset is subject to straight-line depreciation over
the lease term. Assume that no practical expedients are elected, the lessee did not incur initial
direct costs, there were no lease incentives and there were no requirements for the lessee to
dismantle and remove the underlying asset, restore the site on which it is located or restore the
underlying asset to the condition under the terms and conditions of the lease.
What would be the impact for the lessee using all the following transition approaches:

Answer
Full Retrospective Approach:

Under the full retrospective approach, the lease liability and the ROU asset are measured on the
commencement date (i.e., 1 April 2017 in this case) using the incremental borrowing rate at lease
commencement date(i.e., 12% p.a. in this case). The lease liability is accounted for by the
interest method subsequently and the ROU asset is subject to depreciation on the straight-line
basis over the lease term of three years. Let us first calculate the Lease Liability and ROU Asset
as follows:
Year Payments Present Value Factor Discounted Cash flows
(Cash flows) @12% /Present Value
31 Mar 2018 2,00,000 0.8929 1,78,580

Ind AS 116 is applicable for the financial year beginning from 1stApril 2019.Hence, 2019-20 is the
first year of adoption and using Full retrospective method the comparative for 2018-19 needs to
be restated and 1st April 2018 (i.e. the opening of the comparative) is taken as transition date for
adoption of this standard. At adoption, the lessee would record the ROU asset and lease liability
at the 1 April 2018 by taking values from the above table, with the difference between the ROU
asset and lease liability going to retained earnings as of 1 April 2018 (assuming that only the
2018-19 financial information is included as comparatives).

Modified Retrospective Approach (Alternative 1):
Under the modified retrospective approach (Alternative 1), the lease liability is measured based
on the remaining lease payments (i.e., from the date of transition to the lease end date, viz., 01
April 2019 to 31 March 2020 in this case) discounted using the incremental borrowing rate as of
the date of initial application being 01 April 2019 (i.e. 10% p.a. in this case). The ROU asset is
at its carrying amount as if Ind AS 116 had been applied since the commencement date (i.e., 01
April 2017 in this case) by using incremental borrowing rate as at transition date. Let us first
calculate the Lease Liability and ROU Asset as follows:

Modified Retrospective Approach (Alternative 2):
Under the modified retrospective approach (Alternative 2), the lease liability is also measured
based on the remaining lease payments (i.e., from the date of transition to the lease end date,
viz., 01 April 2019 to 31 March 2020 in this case) discounted using the incremental borrowing rate
as of the date of initial application being 01 April 2019 (i.e. 10% p.a. in this case). The carrying
amount of the ROU asset is an amount equal to the carrying amount of the lease liability on the
date of initial application as there are no prepayments or accrual items and hence, no impact on
retained earnings as on the transition date. Let us first calculate the Lease Liability and ROU
Asset as follows:
Year Payments (Cash Discounting Factor @ Discounted Cash

At adoption, the lessee would record the ROU asset and lease liability at the 1 April 2019 by
taking values from the above table and there will be no impact on retained earnings on the
transition date being 1 April 2019 since under this alternative, ROU Asset is equal to the Lease

Question 44
A lessee enters into a ten-year contract with a lessor (freight carrier) to transport a specified
quantity of goods. Lessor uses rail wagons of a particular specification, and has a large pool of
similar rail wagons that can be used to fulfil the requirements of the contract. The rail wagons and
engines are stored at lessor’s premises when they are not being used to transport goods. Costs
associated with substituting the rail wagons are minimal for lessor.
Whether the lessor has substantive substitutions rights and whether the arrangement contains a
lease?
(Study Material)
Answer
In this case, the rail wagons are stored at lessor’s premises and it has a large pool of similar rail
wagons and substitution costs to be incurred are minimal. Thus, the lessor has the practical
ability to substitute the asset. If at any point, the same become economically beneficial for the
lessor to substitute the wagons, he can do so and hence, the lessor’s substitution rights are
substantive and the arrangement does not contain a lease.

Question 45
Customer M enters into a 20-year contract with Energy Supplier S to install, operate and maintain
a solar plant for M’s energy supply. M designed the solar plant before it was constructed – M
hired experts in solar energy to assist in determining the location of the plant and the engineering
of the equipment to be used. M has the exclusive right to receive and the obligation to take any
energy produced. Whether it can be established that M is having the right to control the use of
identified asset?
(Study Material)
Answer
In this case, the nature of the solar plant is such that all of the decisions about how and for what
purpose the asset is used are predetermined because:
– the type of output (i.e. energy) and the production location are predetermined in the
agreement; and
– when, whether and how much energy is produced is influenced by the sunlight and the
design of the solar plant.
Because M designed the solar plant and thereby predetermined any decisions about how and for
what purpose it is used, M is considered to have the right to direct the use. Although regular
maintenance of the solar plant may increase the efficiency of the solar panels, it does not give the
supplier the right to direct how and for what purpose the solar plant is used. Hence, M is having a
right to control the use of asset.

Question 46
A Customer enters into a ten-year contract with a Company (a ship owner) for the use of an
identified ship. Customer decides whether and what cargo will be transported, and when and to
which ports the ship will sail throughout the period of use, subject to restrictions specified in the
contract. These restrictions prevent the company from sailing the ship into waters at a high risk of
Page 41

piracy or carrying explosive materials. The company operates and maintains the ship, and is
responsible for safe passage.
Does the customer has the right to direct how and for what purpose the ship is to be used
throughout the period of use and whether the arrangement contains a lease?
(Study Material)
Answer
The customer has the right to direct the use of the ship because the contractual restrictions are
merely protective rights that protect the company’s investment in the ship and its personnel. In
the scope of its right of use, the customer determines how and for what purpose the ship is used
throughout the ten-year period because it decides whether, where and when the ship sails, as
well as the cargo that it will transport.
The customer has the right to change these decisions throughout the period of use and hence,
the contract contains a lease.

Question 47
A Lessee enters into a ten-year lease contract with a Lessor to use an equipment. The contract
includes maintenance services (as provided by lessor). The Lessor obtains its own insurance for
the equipment. Annual payments are ` 10,000 (` 1,000 relate to maintenance services and ` 500
to insurance costs).
The Lessee is able to determine that similar maintenance services and insurance costs are
offered by third parties for ` 2,000 and ` 500 a year, respectively. The Lessee is unable to find an
observable stand-alone rental amount for a similar equipment because none is leased without
related maintenance services provided by the lessor.
How would the Lessee allocate the consideration to the lease component?
(Study Material)
Answer
The observable stand-alone price for maintenance services is ` 2,000. There is no observable
stand-alone price for the lease. Further, the insurance cost does not transfer a good or service to
the lessee and therefore, it is not a separate lease component.
Thus, the Lessee allocates ` 8,000 (` 10,000 – ` 2,000) to the lease component.

Question 48
A Lessee enters into a non-cancellable lease contract with a Lessor to lease a building.
Initially, the lease is for five years, and the lessee has the option to extend the lease by another
five years at the same rental.
To determine the lease term, the lessee considers the following factors:
♦ Market rentals for a comparable building in the same area are expected to increase by
10% over the ten-year period covered by the lease. At inception of the lease, lease
rentals are in accordance with current market rents.
♦ The lessee intends to stay in business in the same area for at least 20 years.
♦ The location of the building is ideal for relationships with suppliers and customers. What
should be the lease term for lease accounting under Ind AS 116?
(Study Material)
Page 42

Answer
After considering all the stated factors, the lessee concludes that it has a significant economic
incentive to extend the lease.
Thus, for the purpose of lease accounting under Ind AS 116, the lessee uses a lease term of ten
years.
  
Question 49
A Lessee enters into a lease of a five-year-old machine. The non-cancellable lease term is 15
years. The lessee has the option to extend the lease after the initial 15-year period for optional
periods of 12 months each at market rents.
To determine the lease term, the lessee considers the following factors:
♦ The machine is to be used in manufacturing parts for a type of plane that the lessee
expects will remain popular with customers until development and testing of an improved
model are completed in approximately 15 years.
♦ The cost to install the machine in lessee’s manufacturing facility is significant.
♦ The non-cancellable term of lessee’s manufacturing facility lease ends in 19 years, and
the lessee has an option to renew that lease for another twelve years.
♦ Lessee does not expect to be able to use the machine in its manufacturing process for
other types of planes without significant modifications.
♦ The total remaining life of the machine is 30 years.
What should be the lease term for lease accounting under Ind AS 116?
(Study Material)
Answer
The lessee notes that the terms for the optional renewal provide no economic incentive and the
cost to install is significant. The lessee has no incentive to make significant modifications to the
machine after the initial 15-year period. Therefore, the lessee does not expect to have a business
purpose for using the machine after the non-cancellable lease term of 15 years.
Thus, the lessee concludes that the lease term consists of the 15-year non-cancellable period
only.
  
Question 50
A Company leases a manufacturing facility. The lease payments depend on the number of
operating hours of the manufacturing facility, i.e., the lessee has to pay ` 2,000 per hour of use.
The annual minimum payment is ` 2,00,00,000. The expected usage per year is 20,000 hours.
Whether the said payments be included in the calculation of lease liability under Ind AS 116?
(Study Material)
Answer
The said lease contains in-substance fixed payments of ` 2,00,00,000 per year, which are
included in the initial measurement of the lease liability under Ind AS 116.
However, the additional ` 2,00,00,000 that the company expects to pay per year are variable
payments that do not depend on an index or rate and, thus, are not included in the initial
measurement of the lease liability but, are expensed when the over-use occurs.
