Hello! Help me figure out the problem, please. Do I understand correctly that this task is for sale and leaseback? Based on the methodology described in IFRS 16, I have lease obligations (USD 7,023,581.54), and a right-of-use asset (USD 6,020,212.75). I don’t understand if this is possible. Why conduct an unprofitable operation? What will be the answer in the task?
Thank you very much in advance!

On 1 January 20X4, Stark entered into a sale and leaseback of its property. When it was sold, the asset had a carrying amount of $6 million and a remaining life of 10 years. Stark sold the asset for $7 million and leased it back on a 10 year lease, paying $1 million on 31 December each year. The lease carried an implicit interest rate of 7%.
What is the total expense that should be recorded in the statement of profit or loss for the year ended 31 December 20X4?

Hi,

There will be profit in the lease arrangement, so I wouldn’t worry too much about the economic aspect. Keep the focus on the numbers and how to account for them.

Thanks
