Lease payment components

AAbdul8y ago
Dear sir, going through your video of lessor accounting for finance lease I noticed that you did not take guaranteed residual value as part of lease payment. However (as much as I know seen in the standard IFRS 16 [pg. A740]), lease payment also include guaranteed residual value. That means total residual value guarantee is taken in to account to compute lease payment. But your solution only contains unguranteed. I am confused as I did take full residual value guarantee. Kindly comment. Regards

Hi, I was always under the impression that it was the unguaranteed residual amount that was included in the gross investment in the lease but it may appear otherwise. I've also consulted the BBP study text, which is of the same view as myself and in contrast to the standard. All very odd and I'll look into it further. Thanks
