Advanced IFRS 15 Revenue and IFRS 16 Lease Accounting Training Course

Overview

Advanced IFRS 15 Revenue and IFRS 16 Lease Accounting Training Course is a one-week course for financial reporting managers, accountants, controllers and auditors who leave with an Integrated Contract Accounting File. Participants analyze customer and lease contracts, build measurement schedules, record entries and prepare disclosure evidence. The course connects revenue judgments and lease-accounting decisions through contract-based cases and control artifacts. Agile Leaders Training Center develops IFRS 15 revenue and IFRS 16 lease accounting capability.

Who Should Attend

• Teams responsible for revenue recognition and contract accounting

• Functions responsible for lease identification, measurement and reporting

• Controllers responsible for close entries and disclosure evidence

FAQs

Who suits IFRS 15 revenue and IFRS 16 lease accounting training?

Financial reporting managers, accountants, controllers and auditors suit the training. Participants should already prepare journal entries and interpret financial statements.

How does IFRS 15 and IFRS 16 training differ from general IFRS training?

IFRS 15 and IFRS 16 training applies contract analysis, measurement schedules, entries and evidence to revenue and leases. General IFRS training surveys a wider range of standards with less transaction depth.

What is the IFRS 15 five-step revenue model?

The model identifies the customer contract and performance obligations, determines and allocates the transaction price, then recognizes revenue when or as control transfers.

How is an IFRS 16 lease liability measured?

A lease liability starts with the present value of unpaid lease payments using the applicable discount rate, then changes for interest, payments and qualifying remeasurements.

How do IFRS 15 and IFRS 16 interact in sale-and-leaseback accounting?

IFRS 15 determines whether the asset transfer qualifies as a sale, while IFRS 16 governs measurement of the retained right of use and leaseback accounting.

Conclusion

Participants take back an Integrated Contract Accounting File containing assessment memos, revenue models, lease schedules, entries and disclosure evidence. The file changes fragmented contract reviews into a traceable reporting process. It helps accounting and audit teams resolve judgments, reconcile balances and support financial statement conclusions.
