Topic 842 - Implementing Leases Workshop
This updated course offers an in-depth look at the FASB leases standard (ASC 842), which requires organizations to recognize lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet. This comprehensive course will cover recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure requirements while also focusing on a critical area of change, which is the proper identification of a lease using a principles-based approach. We will discuss implementation requirements from both the lessee and lessor accounting models. In addition, we explore a variety of scenarios, including short-term leases, purchase options, variable lease payments, and remeasurement. This course offers practical journal entry examples and lessons learned from implementation, while also exploring recently issued amendments to the lease accounting guidance.
Upon completing this course, learners will be able to:
- Define a lease under the new leases standard
- Apply recognition and measurement requirements of the new leases standard
- Recognize the presentation and disclosure requirements of the new leases standar
- Prepare journal entries necessary to account for leases as both a lessee and lessor
