Creating initial leases with local reporting

A lease accountant can create an initial lease record that includes local reporting with a different incremental borrowing rate than is used on the main standard for the lease.

Procedure

  1. Go to the Local Reporting tab. If the Accounting Standard = GAAP (FASB), the Local Reporting tab is IFRS16 (IASB), or vice versa.
  2. Enter the Incremental Borrowing Rate for the local reporting schedule. It can be different from the value set on the Accounting tab.
  3. For a GAAP lease, in the Lease Classification section, click Recalculate NPV.
    For an IFRS lease, answer the questions in the GAAP Classification section and click Calculate Lease Classification.
