A lessor should account for all initial direct costs, lease incentives, and any other payments made to or by the entity in connection with a modification to a lease in the same manner as those items would be accounted for in connection with a new lease.

When a lease modification is accounted for as a new lease, the lessee accounts for the separate lease in the same way as any new lease, using a new discount rate. A lessee revises the discount rate when there is a modification that is not accounted for as a separate lease.

IFRS 16 specifies how an IFRS reporter will recognise, measure, present and disclose leases. The standard provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring lessees to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases unless the lease term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value.

IFRS 16 introduces a single lessee accounting model and requires a lessee to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value.

The lessor reports the lease as a leased asset on the balance sheet and individual lease payments as income on the income and cash flow statements. The lessee reports the lease as both an asset and a liability on the balance sheet due to their stake as a potential owner of the asset and their required payment.

An operating lease is treated like renting?lease payments are considered as operating expenses. Assets being leased are not recorded on the company's balance sheet; they are expensed on the income statement. So, they affect both operating and net income.

The two criteria are: The modification grants the lessee an additional right-of-use not specified in the original lease (for example, the right to use additional assets or additional floors/space in a building)

3 Remeasurement of lease liability. A lease liability should be remeasured on the effective date of the reassessment event or modification (the date that the modification is approved by both the lessee and lessor) as if the lease were a new lease that commences on that date.

Variable lease payments depending on the future sales or use of the asset. Well, under the definitions in IFRS 16, the payments NOT depending on the rate or index DO NOT enter into your lease payments. In other words they are excluded. Instead, they are recognized in profit or loss when incurred.

A lease modification is a change to the terms and conditions of a contract resulting in a change to either the scope or consideration for a lease. This could be a change that either adds or terminates the right to use a portion or all of the underlying asset(s) or changes the lease term.
