In 2016, the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new standards for lease accounting: IFRS 16 & ASC 842, which must be implemented by 2019. Both IFRS 16 and ASC 842 are the result of a joint effort between the IASB and FASB to meet the objective of improved transparency, comparability and financial reporting. These changes will impact virtually all companies, whether lessors or lessees.
This eBook provides an overview of what companies need to know now and what actions you should be undertaking now to assure compliance with the new standards and to improve your overall company-wide lease management capabilities in the process.
