Ownership transfer leases, update

In my March 17 post, I said that it wasn't clear how the scope change affected leases with an ownership transfer. Based on the IASB Update just released regarding last week's meeting, it seems clear that they are also to be considered leases. The boards have decided to simply eliminate the language that took leases with bargain purchase options and ownership transfers out of scope of the leasing standard.
