Ask the Tutor ACCA SBR

ias 17 leases

Fflippy12y ago
the answer for past year question 4 (a) states that accounting for operating lease can be conceptually flawed,because when an entity enters into an operating lease,it also acquire the rights to use the asset.so the entity can also recognise the rights as an asset.however this is not permitted by the ias...when they say the entity can recognise the rights as an asset,do they mean asset as in intangibles ias 38 or financial asset ias 39?

In that context, I believe the answer was referring to an intangible asset - "the right to use"
