IFRS 16 substantially carries forward the lessor
accounting requirements in IAS 17. Accordingly, a lessor
continues to classify its leases as operating leases or
finance leases, and to account for those two types of
leases differently.
IFRS 16 is effective from 1 January 2019.
A company1 can choose to apply IFRS 16
before that date but only if it also
applies IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts
with Customers.
