    Dear Sir

    This was what happened at work and I am not sure if the treatment was right.

    Our company provide leased vehicles to staff and the lease contract normally lasts for 36 months. We have to pay 3 month rental as initial payment plus a month’s rental and the final 3 months leading up to the end of the 3 year contract will be rent free. My finance manager has decided to post the initial 3 months rental as prepayment (which I agree) but not to release it until 33 months later.

    My understanding is that prepayment is a current asset. If we were to do what the manager suggested, it seems to me that this prepayment would become a non current asset. Is this in compliance of the IAS,IFRS or U.K. GAAP?

    Please advise.

    Kind regards

    I am sorry but we only give free help for exam related questions – not for work questions. This could not be relevant for Paper F3.
