Lease Accounting

Stay compliant with evolving lease standards—AAFCPAs helps CFOs streamline lease calculations, reporting, and classification with guidance and advanced technology.

Lease Accounting Services for Accuracy & Compliance

As CFOs know, lease accounting can be incredibly complex due to the detailed analysis required to identify and classify leases, including embedded leases in service agreements. This is made more complex and onerous when organizations have multiple leases and recurring lease modifications. The lease standard mandates recognizing right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet, which involves intricate calculations and significant judgment. AAFCPAs helps clients improve lease accounting accuracy and keep you compliant even as standards evolve. We utilize AI-enabled lease software to help clients streamline contract data, modifications, and reporting.

Impact Analysis

We help clients understand the impact of the lease standard on lease changes, including modifications, extensions, new leases, and terminations. Our services include assisting with the inventory of all existing leases and terms and analyzing qualifying lease agreements. We provide detailed summaries and accounting treatments, guidance on classifying leases as operating or finance, and advice on bundling lease agreements and similar policies to improve analysis efficiency.

Calculation Assistance

For clients with multiple leases, we use AI-enabled software to perform lease calculations quickly and provide monthly entries. This includes data entry and generating spreadsheets while maintaining auditor independence for assurance clients.
