Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leasing of capital assets has become an important financing method, not only in the United States but in most West European countries as well. As a result, more and more often, practitioners and theorists are confronted with the lease-or-purchase issue. It may be rather difficult, however, to resolve this issue since there is a multitude of lease-or-purchase models that vary widely in assumed initial conditions, form, and content. In this book, I review and evaluate a number of these models, paying attention to financial leases as well as to operating leases. The models will be analyzed verbally, by means of a numerical example and utilizing uniform mathematical nota tion. After having discussed the theoretical achievements in this area, I investigate the reasons why preference is given to leasing in real-world situa tions and then look into any differences in legal provisions, income tax systems, and accounting regulations in various countries as they may affect the leasing of capital assets. Consequently, I feel that this book is a helpful instrument for both theorists and practitioners confronted with the lease-or purchase decision. Many people made valuable contributions toward developing this book, among others my colleagues of the Department of Business Finance of Erasmus University, Rotterdam. Besides, I am especially indebted to Pro fessor Dr. A. I. Diepenhorst for his advice and suggestions, to an anonymous reviewer for helpful comments, and to Mrs. M. Leutscher-Van den Berg for her patient help in preparing the various versions of the manuscript.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Accounting Theory and its Practice” is a comprehensive book that explores the dynamic interplay between accounting theory and its real-world application. Authored by renowned experts in the field, this book offers valuable insights into the theoretical foundations of accounting and how these theories are put into practice in diverse business contexts. The book delves into the conceptual underpinnings of accounting, providing readers with a solid understanding of the fundamental principles that govern financial reporting and analysis. It discusses various accounting theories, including normative theories (which prescribe how accounting should be done), positive theories (which seek to explain how accounting is actually practiced), and critical theories (which analyze the broader socio-political implications of accounting practices). This multi-dimensional approach helps readers appreciate the complexity and depth of the accounting discipline. One of the strengths of “Accounting Theory and its Practice” is its focus on the practical application of accounting theories. It highlights the role of accounting standards, such as Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), in shaping financial reporting practices across the globe. The book also offers real-world examples and case studies that illustrate how accounting theories are translated into financial statements and disclosures, demonstrating the relevance of theory in day-to-day accounting tasks. The book delves into contemporary accounting issues, including sustainability reporting, the impact of digital technologies on accounting practices, and the evolving role of accountants in an increasingly complex and globalized business environment. It provides a holistic view of accounting’s role in decision-making processes, showing how it informs financial decisions, corporate governance, and regulatory compliance.

This book was released on 2011-03-09 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wissenschaftlicher Aufsatz aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Jura - Zivilrecht / Handelsrecht, Gesellschaftsrecht, Kartellrecht, Wirtschaftsrecht, , Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Leasing is more and more understood as a modern form of financing of various assets, both in the commercial and the private sector. Leases have now become an integral part of economic life. With their multiple creative possibilities and variations, leases are an equitable alternative to buying and renting for companies. The diversity of different forms of leasing, and the fact that there is no uniform lease contract as a reference, results in lease accounting being one of the most difficult areas of accounting under almost all jurisdictions. [1] This diversity leads to an accounting system for leasing business with different possibilities to allocate positions in the P & L and balance sheet. Due to the lack of specific rules, leasing accounting is mostly based on general accounting principles. [2] In Germany, relevant tax decrees have impact on the local accounting. Leases are, in principle, not fixed on legal contract types, and this allows temporary grant of use and utilization of liquidity-friendly financing alternatives in the balance-sheet. Since most major accounting systems presuppose exclusion of pending transactions from the balance sheet, [3] companies used contracts for grant of use, such as lease, deliberately to influence the accounting. For example, sale and leaseback transactions are used to reduce the balance-sheet debt, though the physical property mapping has not changed. [4] The current lease accounting under IFRS 17 of the IASB is to be understood as a reaction to the existing situation in the various accounting systems. The aim of the standard setter was to capture the major part of the grant of use in the balance sheet. All postings, which change the asset allocation similar to an investment, should also be accounted as such. [5] The concept of economic ownership divides any grant of use in leasing into two classes. The finance leases which, simply put, means all long-term and investment-like grants of use, and operating leases, which are any other grants of use. This was still not sufficient for IASB members. Therefore chaired by Warren McGregor, the IASB issued a joint project with the U.S. Federal Accounting Standards Board (FASB), and since 2006, the lease accounting is on the agenda as an active reform project. Basis for reform efforts was the socalled McGregor paper of 1996. [6] [...]

Download or read book An Introduction to Modern Financial Reporting Theory written by Brian A Rutherford and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2000-09-30 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The adoption by the Accounting Standards Board of its Statement of Principles for Financial Reporting in December 1999 means that we now have an authoritative conceptual framework which should govern the production of British financial statements. Yet while the text of the Statement is directed at members of the accounting profession, students of accounting will need to understand the framework and its repercussions. An Introduction to Modern Financial Reporting Theory explains the content of the Statement in an accessible language, specifically for the student of accounting and finance. This text will be of direct and practical interest to students who need to understand the contents of the new framework, which helps to explain: why and how financial reporting is carried out; why financial statements are prepared in the way that they are; why accounting standards specify one method rather than another; how the methods specified by accounting standards relate to each other; how practice has developed and will continue to develop. Brian Rutherford emphasizes and enlarges on the key features of the framework, provides many more examples, shows how the framework applies in practice and also offers some criticisms of its content. The book clarifies to students why various methods and practices in accounting have evolved, while illustrating how they relate to each other and to the underlying function of financial reporting. This text will be essential reading on university and professional courses in advanced financial accounting, particularly courses on Accounting Theory and Financial Reporting. Brian Rutherford is Professor of Accounting at Canterbury Business School, University Kent at Canterbury.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 2,7, University of applied sciences, Munich, language: English, abstract: Leasing is nowadays an established part of the economy as an investment alternative. These figures are promising for the German market, but also comparable with the US. There the share of the investment market accounted for by leasing remained at over 30 percent for years. Due to the financial crisis this rate decreased, but it's rising again. In spite of the crisis leasing expanded its top position as an alternative to the classic bank loans over the past 50 years. Recognized as key engine of innovations, it even assures sufficient financial cushion for investments and contributes to growth dynamics in economies. But what exactly is leasing? There is no generally applicable definition of leases, but in its simplest form, it can be described as provision of access to finance. Leasing object can be anything as classical as machines or real estates, but also intangible assets as software or trademark rights. Leases are an important instrument of accounting policies for entities. In many sectors appropriate equipment is not bought, but leased. Therefore and because of the globalization of capital markets an increasing convergence of accounting standards worldwide is accelerated. The progress toward attaining a global financial reporting framework is focused, and many significant steps have been taken. One of them is the Exposure Draft ED/2013/6. The ambition of it was to guarantee transparency of financial statements as source of information for their readers of financial statements who can be managers, investors, financial auditors but also a big range of stakeholders. Reasons for revising was that the lease accounting model has continually met with criticism. Objective of the following term paper is to provide an overview of the current lease accounting standard.
