Q1.
Large Mart has decided to use the exemption rules outlined in AASB 16, paragraphs 5-8 for all leased items to which these exemptions apply, paragraph 5 describes the following:
A lessee may not elect not to apply in requirements according to paragraphs 22-49 to:
(a) Short term leases; and
(b) Leases for which the underlying asset is of low value
Lease payments are acknowledged as a cost over the lease period for short-term leases or leases of low-value products to which this exemption is applicable. A lease containing an option for purchase can not be categorized as a short-term lease. If a lessee chooses to apply the exemption in IFRS 16:5 to either short-term leases or low-value leases, the lease payments associated with those leases should be recognized as an expense over the lease term, either straight-line. Renting Contract would not require any entry, as there is no transaction no asset/liability created normal accounting standard will be followed for rent.
