Crystal Palace own football stadium with life of 40 years. A. Sell and lease back for 10 years - this is a genuine sale and leaseback, so all the (complicated) rules apply. B. Sell and lease back for 40 years - this is NOT a genuine sale and leaseback, so it would be booked as a loan secured on the asset. PPE not derecognised.
