C2C1148BLessor under long funding finance lease: exceptional items

1

This section applies for the purpose of calculating the profits of a person carrying on a trade for a period of account if he is or has been the lessor under a long funding finance lease.

2

This section has effect where a profit or loss (whether of an income or capital nature)—

a

arises to the person in connection with the lease, and

b

in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice falls to be recognised for accounting purposes in a period of account, but

c

would not, apart from this section, be brought into account in calculating the profits of the person.

3

The profit or loss is to be treated—

a

in the case of a profit, as income of the person that is attributable to the lease,

b

in the case of a loss, as a revenue expense incurred by the person in connection with the lease.

4

Any reference in this section to an amount falling to be recognised for accounting purposes in a period of account is a reference to an amount falling to be recognised for accounting purposes—

a

in the person's profit and loss account or income statement,

b

in the person's statement of recognised gains and losses or statement of changes in equity, or

c

in any other statement of items brought into account in computing the person's profits or losses for that period.
