Lease agreements frequently bundle multiple components 鈥� from complex outsourcing arrangements, to simple real estate leases in which the landlord provides building maintenance. If your business has leases, you will probably face component questions when implementing IFRS 16聽Leases.

The lease component is the unit of account for lease accounting. Lessors and lessees need to identify, and generally separate, lease and non-lease components to apply the new standard. To do this, they need to allocate the consideration in the contract between the components that they account for separately.聽
