Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to examine how the change in disclosure of operating leases due to the mandated IFRS 16 standard will influence entities cost of debt. Therefore, this paper investigate whether an increase in operating leases has an equal effect on the cost of debt as a corresponding increase in debt.

This paper concludes that operating leases is a complement rather than a substitute to debt and that the increased harmonization effect

Abstract:

The release of the Exposure Draft Leases by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in August 2010 has brought about much discussion regarding the proposed treatment for lease accounting. The changes proposed include the capitalization of operating leases by lessees, which are currently regarded as off-balance sheet financing. When the proposed changes take place, industries that have substantial off-balance sheet leases currently, such as the retail industry, will face significant adjustments for assets and liabilities, as well as changes in their income statement. This paper quantifies thes

Abstract:

This project clarifies previous ambiguity about the role of tax and financial reporting concerns in lessee firms' lease-type decisions. A private data set provided by anonymous lessor firms is used to accurately identify for the first time the lessee's lease-type and its use of related tax deductions. This project also considers for the first time the role of hybrid lease products such as the synthetic lease in managers' ability to balance firms' tax versus financial reporting concerns. Prior research even in the period after synthetic leases were introduced to the market relied on noisy publi

Abstract:

Företag kan finansiera verksamheten på olika sätt. Ett alternativ för finansiering vid nyanskaffning är leasing. Det innebär att man låter ett annat bolag köpa tillgången och hyr det sedan av bolaget. Den nya standarden, IFRS 16, som ges ut av IASB och som ska tas i bruk från och med januari 2019, har ändrat kriterierna för klassificeringen av leasingavtal. Vilket har gjort att många tidigare operationella leasingavtal med en avtalstid längre än 12 månader kommer med den nya standarden att klassas som finansiella leasingavtal och därmed föras in på balansräkningen som skulder och tillgångar.

Abstract:

The recent proposal by the Group of Four Plus One to modify the accounting treatment of operating leases has attracted considerable comment. However, a review of the publicly available submissions to this proposal reveals that no one has addressed the issue in terms of the primary objective of general purpose financial reports, that is, to provide decision useful information to non-professional investors. This thesis seeks to redress this gap by providing some evidence of the ability of nonprofessional investors to evaluate operating leases as they are presented according to current accounting

Abstract:

When standards for financial reporting are amended, potential for change in the appearance of financial position for companies reporting under those standards arises. Currently standards set forth by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) allow for two methods of reporting lease obligations on the financial statements. The first of these methods is the operating method, which allows lease payments to be expensed within the period they are incurred and only a decrease in cash or an increase in an account payable is recognized on the balance sheet. The second method is the capital metho

Koncerner som redovisar enligt IFRS ska från och med 1 januari 2019 tillämpa den nya leasingstandarden IFRS 16. Den traditionella och vedertagna uppdelningen av leasing har länge varit operationell och finansiell leasing. Den nya standarden innebär emellertid att uppdelningen mellan operationell och finansiell leasing försvinner. Istället ska företag enligt IFRS 16 redovisa merparten av sin leasing som en tillgång och en skuld på balansräkningen.

Leasing har generellt sett varit en attraktiv finansieringsmetod för företag att erhålla de tillgångar som krävs för att kunna konkurrera inom sin bransch. Med IAS 17 kan leasingavtal klassificeras som antingen finansiella eller operationella vilket påverkar hur företagen redovisar sina leasingavtal. Operationell leasing har skapat möjligheter för företag att hålla sin finansiering utanför balansräkningarna och därmed dold för företagens externa intressenter. Företagen har på så vis kunnat visa en bättre bild av deras finansiella ställning samt prestation. Denna problematik försöker nu Interna

Background and problem: On January 1st 2019 the new accounting standard IFRS 16 was implemented which requires lessees to capitalize operating leases, hence moving the lease information from the footnotes on to the balance sheet.

The background for this essay is the problems associated with the previous leasing standard IAS 17, and the implementation of the new, IFRS 16. During the appliance of IAS 17 leasing was either classified as operating- or finance leasing. Here the focus is whether there are similarities in the lease contract to a repayment purchase or not. For finance leases there are similarities to a purchase of the asset, where the lessee shall report both the asset and liability in the balance sheet. Simultaneously neither the asset or liability is reported in the balance sheet when establishing operating

A standard, quantitative method to compare and contrast leader behaviors is needed to siphon utility from each resource, leading to an integrated and diversified set of optimal behaviors for leaders to consider. Leaders have limited time and need a reliable method to make informed behavioral decisions that consistently produce the most positive effects on the desired

Abstract:

Empathy has been shown to be a very powerful social and work ability. This study surveyed 754 employees of a privately held eastern United States company, and incorporated annual performance evaluations to empirically link interactive empathy to leader performance of 102 leaders. Data was collected from the leader’s followers, peers, and supervisors and from self-report personality evaluations. The results of this study show that leaders that are willing to engage their followers with empathic displays are seen as better leaders from their supervisors and have more engaged employees. Other
