COURSE OVERVIEW

The new standard in leasing assets is the most impactful change to accounting seen in decades. The distinction between ‘what is a finance lease’ and ‘what is an operating lease’ is no longer a concern as the treatment has become standardized. This course will focus on the recently updated IFRS 16 Leases in order to assist business professionals in the interpreting of the new standard and its application. This course will focus on ‘real life’ case study examples so that you can really relate the core principles to your own work.
