Actual changes in the lease accounting according to the IFRS

The thesis provides actual changes in the lease accounting according to the IFRS. Boards IASB and FASB are trying to remove the differences in a lease reporting and also they want to integrate it. This integration will lead to reporting of comparable information about the financial state of the company. This information represents a necessary field for users of financial statements. The aim of these two boards is to publish a particular lease standard for lease reporting, which would replace currently applicable standards and therefore simplify the orientation within financial statements. The thesis is divided into six chapters. The first chapter is focused on the convergence process from its beginning. The aim of the second chapter is to show the lease reporting according to the currently applicable standards -- IFRS and US GAAP. The third chapter describes the lease definitions according to the Exposure draft. The fourth and the fifth chapter are dedicated to reporting of lease from the lessee's point of view and lessor's point of view, as well. The last chapter shows positive/negative comments of five chosen organizations on the Exposure draft
