A contract contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified item of property, plant, or equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration — meaning the customer has both the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from use and the right to direct the use of that asset (842-10-15-3, 15-4). Classification is made once at the commencement date and is reassessed only on a modification not accounted for as a separate contract (or, for lessees, a change in lease term or purchase option assessment) (842-10-25-1).", "key_points": [ "The Topic applies to all leases, including subleases, but excludes leases of intangible assets, mineral/oil/gas exploration rights, biological assets including timber, inventory, and assets under construction (842-10-15-1).", "A contract is or contains a lease only if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified PP&E asset for a period of time for consideration; control requires both the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from use and the right to direct the use of the asset throughout the period of use (842-10-15-3; 15-4), and the assessment is revisited only if the contract's terms and conditions change (842-10-15-6).", "An asset is not 'identified' if the supplier has a substantive substitution right — practical ability to substitute throughout the period of use plus economic benefit from substituting; if the customer cannot readily determine this, the right is presumed not substantive (842-10-15-10; 15-15). A physically distinct capacity portion is an identified asset; a non-physically-distinct portion is not unless it is substantially all of the capacity (842-10-15-16).", "Separate lease components exist where the lessee can benefit from the right of use on its own or with readily available resources and the right of use is neither highly dependent on nor highly interrelated with other rights of use (842-10-15-28); land is generally separated (842-10-15-29), and administrative setup tasks and reimbursements of lessor costs are not components and receive no allocation (842-10-15-30).", "Lessees allocate consideration on a relative standalone price basis (842-10-15-33) but may elect by class of underlying asset not to separate nonlease components (842-10-15-37); lessors allocate using Topic 606 (842-10-15-38) and may elect to combine nonlease components with an operating lease component when the timing and pattern of transfer are the same (842-10-15-42A through 15-42B).", "A lessee classifies a lease as a finance lease and a lessor as a sales-type lease if any of the five criteria in 842-10-25-2 are met (ownership transfer, purchase option reasonably certain of exercise, major part of remaining economic life, PV of lease payments plus lessee residual value guarantee equals or exceeds substantially all of fair value, or specialized asset with no alternative use); otherwise a lessor has a direct financing lease only if the PV test (including third-party guarantees) is met and collection is probable, and an operating lease in all other cases (842-10-25-3). Reasonable benchmarks are 75% of economic life and 90% of fair value (842-10-55-2).", "Lease term is the noncancellable period plus optional periods the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise or not to terminate, and periods whose exercise the lessor controls (842-10-30-1); lease payments include fixed and in-substance fixed payments net of incentives, index/rate-based variable payments measured at commencement, reasonably certain purchase option prices, termination penalties, and (lessee only) amounts probable of being owed under residual value guarantees (842-10-30-5), excluding other variable payments (842-10-30-6). A modification is a separate contract only if it adds a right of use priced at its standalone price (842-10-25-8)." ], "categories": [ "Leases", "Recognition", "Initial measurement", "Presentation" ], "audience_level": "intermediate", "student_note": "842-10 is the gateway subtopic: nearly every lease question starts with 'is there a lease?' and 'how is it classified?' Students commonly treat the old 90%/75% tests as bright lines — under 842 they are only 'one reasonable approach' (842-10-55-2) — and forget that lessors cannot reassess lease term or remeasure lease payments absent a modification (842-10-35-3; 35-6).", "related_topics": [ "842-20", "842-30", "842-40", "842-50", "606", "360" ], "key_concepts": [ "identified asset", "right to control the use", "substantive substitution right", "separate lease component", "nonlease component allocation", "lease classification criteria", "lease term and renewal options", "lease payments and residual value guarantees" ] } ``` Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:55:43.879Z to 2026-09-10T01:55:43.879Z Record version: sha256:c96f3b5f7a44e88dfc8b05a6ac6bce6fcd37c28d317979e2257289094712a25f Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. ## ASC 842-10-00: 00 Status [Read section](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#00-status) SEC content: no ##### [842-10-00-1](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-00-1) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:55:43.879Z to 2026-09-10T01:55:43.879Z Record version: sha256:ae9744fc4f22e2b8eec82c9116e300aff0f87e6f7ac4b235c64cdd22cffc49b7 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

This includes the intangible right to explore for those natural resources and rights to use the land in which those natural resources are contained (that is, unless those rights of use include more than the right to explore for natural resources), but not equipment used to explore for the natural resources. 3. c Leases of biological assets, including timber (see Topic 905, Agriculture). 4. d Leases of [inventory](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/i/#inventory "The aggregate of those items of tangible personal property that have any of the following characteristics: Held for sale in the ordinary course of business In process of production for such sale To be currently consumed in the production of goods or services to be available for sale. The term inventory embraces goods awaiting sale (the merchandise of a trading concern and the finished goods of a manufacturer), goods in the course of production (work in process), and goods to be consumed directly or indirectly in production (raw materials and supplies). This definition of inventories excludes long-term assets subject to depreciation accounting, or goods which, when put into use, will be so classified. The fact that a depreciable asset is retired from regular use and held for sale does not indicate that the item should be classified as part of the inventory. Raw materials and supplies purchased for production may be used or consumed for the construction of long-term assets or other purposes not related to production, but the fact that inventory items representing a small portion of the total may not be absorbed ultimately in the production process does not require separate classification. By trade practice, operating materials and supplies of certain types of entities such as oil producers are usually treated as inventory.")

An asset typically is identified by being explicitly specified in a [contract](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/c/#contract "An agreement between two or more parties that creates enforceable rights and obligations.").

Even if an asset is specified, a customer does not have the right to use an identified asset if the supplier has the substantive right to substitute the asset throughout the period of use. A supplier's right to substitute an asset is substantive only if both of the following conditions exist: 1. a The supplier has the practical ability to substitute alternative assets throughout the period of use (for example, the customer cannot prevent the supplier from substituting an asset, and alternative assets are readily available to the supplier or could be sourced by the supplier within a reasonable period of time). 2. b The supplier would benefit economically from the exercise of its right to substitute the asset (that is, the economic benefits associated with substituting the asset are expected to exceed the costs associated with substituting the asset). ##### [842-10-15-11](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-11) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z to 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z Record version: sha256:75257df6f5932f6211a914075003e4f099bdcf2ab651a3eb88902d5954e5bba4 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

A capacity portion of an asset is an identified asset if it is physically distinct (for example, a floor of a building or a segment of a pipeline that connects a single customer to the larger pipeline). A capacity or other portion of an asset that is not physically distinct (for example, a capacity portion of a fiber optic cable) is not an identified asset, unless it represents substantially all of the capacity of the asset and thereby provides the customer with the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset. ##### [842-10-15-17](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-17) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z to 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z Record version: sha256:701a6ff2b7ab770e532ed2c558e39b7397c55104bc9eea57df229d2ca9c6cdc9 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. To control the use of an identified asset, a customer is required to have the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the asset throughout the period of use (for example, by having exclusive use of the asset throughout that period). A customer can obtain economic benefits from use of an asset directly or indirectly in many ways, such as by using, holding, or subleasing the asset. The economic benefits from use of an asset include its primary output and by-products (including potential cash flows derived from these items) and other economic benefits from using the asset that could be realized from a commercial transaction with a third party. ##### [842-10-15-18](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-18) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z to 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z Record version: sha256:7b9e0647b8f0b9fefcb882e832701cdb2576c432146fc4f9ada88e23cdba63a1 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. When assessing the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of an asset, an entity shall consider the economic benefits that result from use of the asset within the defined scope of a customer's right to use the asset in the contract (see paragraph [842-10-15-23](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-23)). For example: 1. a If a contract limits the use of a motor vehicle to only one particular territory during the period of use, an entity shall consider only the economic benefits from use of the motor vehicle within that territory and not beyond. 2. b If a contract specifies that a customer can drive a motor vehicle only up to a particular number of miles during the period of use, an entity shall consider only the economic benefits from use of the motor vehicle for the permitted mileage and not beyond. ##### [842-10-15-19](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-19) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z to 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z Record version: sha256:455cc8fc65e842c975abc7f9757649a7d396e1209451d86c560b5adc629b6049 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. If a contract requires a customer to pay the supplier or another party a portion of the cash flows derived from use of an asset as consideration, those cash flows paid as consideration shall be considered to be part of the economic benefits that the customer obtains from use of the asset. For example, if a customer is required to pay the supplier a percentage of sales from use of retail space as consideration for that use, that requirement does not prevent the customer from having the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the retail space. That is because the cash flows arising from those sales are considered to be economic benefits that the customer obtains from use of the retail space, a portion of which it then pays to the supplier as consideration for the right to use that space. ##### [842-10-15-20](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-20) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z to 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z Record version: sha256:e3f332e72e4fca73dd7fb43c9a57c8951a88b78178901c74f50f11b4218dbd4f Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. A customer has the right to direct the use of an identified asset throughout the period of use in either of the following situations: 1. a The customer has the right to direct how and for what purpose the asset is used throughout the period of use (as described in paragraphs [842-10-15-24 through 15-26](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-24) ). 2. b The relevant decisions about how and for what purpose the asset is used are predetermined (see paragraph [842-10-15-21](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-21)) and at least one of the following conditions exists: 1. 1 The customer has the right to operate the asset (or to direct others to operate the asset in a manner that it determines) throughout the period of use without the supplier having the right to change those operating instructions. 2. 2 The customer designed the asset (or specific aspects of the asset) in a way that predetermines how and for what purpose the asset will be used throughout the period of use. ##### [842-10-15-21](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-21) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z to 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z Record version: sha256:ee59886a1739fe75c98997c77782bed0f13e5ad8606c0aae290321b0e2a6640f Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. The relevant decisions about how and for what purpose an asset is used can be predetermined in a number of ways.

In assessing whether a customer has the right to direct the use of an asset, an entity shall consider only rights to make decisions about the use of the asset during the period of use unless the customer designed the asset (or specific aspects of the asset) in accordance with paragraph [842-10-15-20(b)(2)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-20). Consequently, unless that condition exists, an entity shall not consider decisions that are predetermined before the period of use. For example, if a customer is able only to specify the output of an asset before the period of use, the customer does not have the right to direct the use of that asset. The ability to specify the output in a contract before the period of use, without any other decision-making rights relating to the use of the asset, gives a customer the same rights as any customer that purchases goods or services. ##### [842-10-15-23](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-23) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z to 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z Record version: sha256:61d8ec54985154d1c1b2db0e6dfd3a00c284923ab05c2e0d661472d821e90648 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. A contract may include terms and conditions designed to protect the supplier's interest in the asset or other assets, to protect its personnel, or to ensure the supplier's compliance with laws or regulations. These are examples of protective rights. For example, a contract may specify the maximum amount of use of an asset or limit where or when the customer can use the asset, may require a customer to follow particular operating practices, or may require a customer to inform the supplier of changes in how an asset will be used. Protective rights typically define the scope of the customer's right of use but do not, in isolation, prevent the customer from having the right to direct the use of an asset. ##### [842-10-15-24](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-24) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z to 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z Record version: sha256:9217c51274e3df114685a9f308ef381afa28cb989c5876cc908850ddb6cc557b Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. A customer has the right to direct how and for what purpose an asset is used throughout the period of use if, within the scope of its right of use defined in the contract, it can change how and for what purpose the asset is used throughout that period. In making this assessment, an entity considers the decision-making rights that are most relevant to changing how and for what purpose an asset is used throughout the period of use. Decision-making rights are relevant when they affect the economic benefits to be derived from use. The decision-making rights that are most relevant are likely to be different for different contracts, depending on the nature of the asset and the terms and conditions of the contract. ##### [842-10-15-25](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-25) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z to 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z Record version: sha256:2fa469442255604305941e02520d16833e68116c9cb23a80f9f761bf4f1598b2 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. Examples of decision-making rights that, depending on the circumstances, grant the right to direct how and for what purpose an asset is used, within the defined scope of the customer's right of use, include the following: 1. a The right to change the type of output that is produced by the asset (for example, deciding whether to use a shipping container to transport goods or for storage, or deciding on the mix of products sold from a retail unit) 2. b The right to change when the output is produced (for example, deciding when an item of machinery or a power plant will be used) 3. c The right to change where the output is produced (for example, deciding on the destination of a truck or a ship or deciding where a piece of equipment is used or deployed) 4. d The right to change whether the output is produced and the quantity of that output (for example, deciding whether to produce energy from a power plant and how much energy to produce from that power plant). ##### [842-10-15-26](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-26) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z to 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z Record version: sha256:ed2c7d32efffc65da9af5496f5232a43f2083996d92c9bd04004a634d69cc749 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. Examples of decision-making rights that do not grant the right to direct how and for what purpose an asset is used include rights that are limited to operating or maintaining the asset. Although rights such as those to operate or maintain an asset often are essential to the efficient use of an asset, they are not rights to direct how and for what purpose the asset is used and often are dependent on the decisions about how and for what purpose the asset is used. Such rights (that is, to operate or maintain the asset) can be held by the customer or the supplier. The supplier often holds those rights to protect its investment in the asset. However, rights to operate an asset may grant the customer the right to direct the use of the asset if the relevant decisions about how and for what purpose the asset is used are predetermined (see paragraph [842-10-15-20(b)(1))](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-20). ##### [842-10-15-27](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-27) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z to 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z Record version: sha256:bf4da023c20b6c5930798b95cffeda808944e5a4d0ff8f070d0b35f9c2058a87 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

An entity shall consider the right to use an [underlying asset](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/u/#underlying-asset "An asset that is the subject of a lease for which a right to use that asset has been conveyed to a lessee. The underlying asset could be a physically distinct portion of a single asset.") to be a separate lease component (that is, separate from any other lease components of the contract) if both of the following criteria are met: 1. a The [lessee](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/l/#lessee "An entity that enters into a contract to obtain the right to use an underlying asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.") can benefit from the right of use either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available to the lessee. Readily available resources are goods or services that are sold or leased separately (by the [lessor](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/l/#lessor "An entity that enters into a contract to provide the right to use an underlying asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.") or other suppliers) or resources that the lessee already has obtained (from the lessor or from other transactions or events). 2. b The right of use is neither highly dependent on nor highly interrelated with the other right(s) to use underlying assets in the contract. A lessee's right to use an underlying asset is highly dependent on or highly interrelated with another right to use an underlying asset if each right of use significantly affects the other. ##### [842-10-15-29](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-29) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z to 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z Record version: sha256:dbaa7f7f0e0abf9df1f44fbac078469279c140d6615c18774dfe73904db29db3 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

For example, a lessor may incur various costs in its role as a lessor or as owner of the underlying asset. A requirement for the lessee to pay those costs, whether directly to a third party or as a reimbursement to the lessor, does not transfer a good or service to the lessee separate from the right to use the underlying asset. ##### [842-10-15-31](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-31) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z to 2026-09-10T01:55:52.887Z Record version: sha256:35af5c79c457d1b861d69f8d8d2110ced059be73ea78e86db034d3d87293571f Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

Consider paragraphs 842-10-15-17 through 15-19. Does the customer or the supplier have the right to direct how and for what purpose the identified asset is used throughout the period of use? Consider paragraphs 842-10-15-20(a) and 842-10-15-24 through 15-26. Neither; how and for what purpose the asset will be used is predetermined. Does the customer have the right to operate the asset throughout the period of use without the supplier having the right to change those operating instructions?

In some cases, it may not be practicable for an entity to determine the fair value of an underlying asset. In the context of this Topic, practicable means that a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made without undue cost or effort. It is a dynamic concept; what is practicable for one entity may not be practicable for another, what is practicable in one period may not be practicable in another, and what is practicable for one underlying asset (or class of underlying asset) may not be practicable for another. In those cases in which it is not practicable for an entity to determine the fair value of an underlying asset, lease classification should be determined without consideration of the criteria in paragraphs [842-10-25-2(d)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-25-2) and [842-10-25-3(b)(1)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-25-3). ##### [842-10-55-4](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-4) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:4d47db65442c53287c44e71445a70af059f7795347b970f3ed4e917c7e53fd95 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

A contractual restriction on a lessor's ability to direct an underlying asset for another use must be substantive for the asset not to have an alternative use to the lessor. A contractual restriction is substantive if it is enforceable. A practical limitation on a lessor's ability to direct an underlying asset for another use exists if the lessor would incur significant economic losses to direct the underlying asset for another use. A significant economic loss could arise because the lessor either would incur significant costs to rework the asset or would only be able to sell or re-lease the asset at a significant loss. For example, a lessor may be practically limited from redirecting assets that either have design specifications that are unique to the lessee or that are located in remote areas. The possibility of the [contract](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/c/#contract "An agreement between two or more parties that creates enforceable rights and obligations.") with the customer being terminated is not a relevant consideration in assessing whether the lessor would be able to readily direct the underlying asset for another use. ##### [842-10-55-8](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-8) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:53a2bbf4630e562b7520dc87e5382c4b0d88bc2aeba6932aa57f84a4bd689249 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

Because of special provisions normally present in [leases](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/l/#lease "A contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to control the use of identified property, plant, or equipment (an identified asset) for a period of time in exchange for consideration.") involving terminal space and other airport facilities owned by a governmental unit or authority, the [economic life](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/e/#economic-life "Either the period over which an asset is expected to be economically usable by one or more users or the number of production or similar units expected to be obtained from an asset by one or more users.") of such facilities for purposes of classifying a lease is essentially indeterminate.

From the perspective of a lessor, any lease other than a sales-type lease or a direct financing lease."). This guidance also applies to leases of other facilities owned by a governmental unit or authority in which the rights of the parties are essentially the same as in a lease of airport facilities. Examples of such leases may be those involving facilities at ports and bus terminals. The guidance in this paragraph is intended to apply to leases only if all of the following conditions are met: 1. a The underlying asset is owned by a governmental unit or authority. 2. b The underlying asset is part of a larger facility, such as an airport, operated by or on behalf of the [lessor](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/l/#lessor "An entity that enters into a contract to provide the right to use an underlying asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration."). 3. c The underlying asset is a permanent structure or a part of a permanent structure, such as a building, that normally could not be moved to a new location. 4. d The lessor, or in some circumstances a higher governmental authority, has the explicit right under the lease agreement or existing statutes or regulations applicable to the underlying asset to terminate the lease at any time during the [lease term](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/l/#lease-term "The noncancellable period for which a lessee has the right to use an underlying asset, together with all of the following: Periods covered by an option to extend the lease if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option Periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the lessee is reasonably certain not to exercise that option Periods covered by an option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease in which exercise of the option is controlled by the lessor."), such as by closing the facility containing the underlying asset or by taking possession of the facility. 5. e The lease neither transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the lessee nor allows the lessee to purchase or otherwise acquire ownership of the underlying asset. 6. f The underlying asset or equivalent asset in the same service area cannot be purchased or leased from a nongovernmental unit or authority.

Obligations imposed by a lease agreement to return an underlying asset to its original condition if it has been modified by the lessee (for example, a requirement to remove a lessee-installed leasehold improvement) generally would not meet the definition of lease payments or variable lease payments and would be accounted for in accordance with Subtopic 410-20 on asset retirement and environmental obligations.

Some leases contain indemnification clauses that indemnify lessors on an after-tax basis for certain tax benefits that the lessor may lose if a change in the tax law precludes realization of those tax benefits.

A contract between Customer and a freight carrier (Supplier) provides Customer with the use of 10 rail cars of a particular type for 5 years. The contract specifies the rail cars; the cars are owned by Supplier. Customer determines when, where, and which goods are to be transported using the cars. When the cars are not in use, they are kept at Customer's premises. Customer can use the cars for another purpose (for example, storage) if it so chooses. However, the contract specifies that Customer cannot transport particular types of cargo (for example, explosives). If a particular car needs to be serviced or repaired, Supplier is required to substitute a car of the same type. Otherwise, and other than on default by Customer, Supplier cannot retrieve the cars during the five-year period. ##### [842-10-55-43](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-43) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:af7628e89c61f0a1192d1a8a774120a3000ad51cbc2096013b0af79259fa0586 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

Customer has the right to control the use of the 10 rail cars throughout the 5-year period of use because: 1. a Customer has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the cars over the five-year period of use. Customer has exclusive use of the cars throughout the period of use, including when they are not being used to transport Customer's goods. 2. b Customer has the right to direct the use of the cars. The contractual restrictions on the cargo that can be transported by the cars are protective rights of Supplier and define the scope of Customer's right to use the cars. Within the scope of its right of use defined in the contract, Customer makes the relevant decisions about how and for what purpose the cars are used by being able to decide when and where the rail cars will be used and which goods are transported using the cars. Customer also determines whether and how the cars will be used when not being used to transport its goods (for example, whether and when they will be used for storage).

The contract between Customer and Supplier requires Supplier to transport a specified quantity of goods by using a specified type of rail car in accordance with a stated timetable for a period of five years. The timetable and quantity of goods specified are equivalent to Customer having the use of 10 rail cars for 5 years. Supplier provides the rail cars, driver, and engine as part of the contract. The contract states the nature and quantity of the goods to be transported (and the type of rail car to be used to transport the goods). Supplier has a large pool of similar cars that can be used to fulfill the requirements of the contract. Similarly, Supplier can choose to use any one of a number of engines to fulfill each of Customer's requests, and one engine could be used to transport not only Customer's goods, but also the goods of other customers.

The rail cars and the engines used to transport Customer's goods are not identified assets. Supplier has the substantive right to substitute the rail cars and engine because: 1. a Supplier has the practical ability to substitute each car and the engine throughout the period of use. Alternative cars and engines are readily available to Supplier, and Supplier can substitute each car and the engine without Customer's approval. 2. b Supplier would benefit economically from substituting each car and the engine. There would be minimal, if any, cost associated with substituting each car or the engine because the cars and engines are stored at Supplier's premises and Supplier has a large pool of similar cars and engines. Supplier benefits from substituting each car or the engine in contracts of this nature because substitution allows Supplier to, for example, (1) use cars or an engine to fulfill a task for which the cars or engine are already positioned to perform (for example, a task at a rail yard close to the point of origin) or (2) use cars or an engine that would otherwise be sitting idle because they are not being used by a customer. ##### [842-10-55-51](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-51) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:5d9843cbb26cb1a8d30686380bdce0d54d92c2869dae04ddf4c0624f2536f533 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

Although the amount of space Customer uses is specified in the contract, there is no identified asset. Customer controls its owned kiosk. However, the contract is for space in the airport, and this space can change at the discretion of Supplier.

Customer has the right to control the use of Retail Unit A throughout the five-year period of use because: 1. a Customer has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of Retail Unit A over the five-year period of use.

Customer designed the solar farm before it was constructed—Customer hired experts in solar energy to assist in determining the location of the farm and the engineering of the equipment to be used. Supplier is responsible for building the solar farm to Customer's specifications and then operating and maintaining it. There are no decisions to be made about whether, when, or how much electricity will be produced because the design of the asset has predetermined these decisions.

Customer has the right to control the use of the solar farm throughout the 20-year period of use because: 1. a Customer has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the solar farm over the 20-year period of use. Customer has exclusive use of the solar farm; it takes all of the electricity produced by the farm over the 20-year period of use as well as the renewable energy credits that are a by-product from use of the solar farm. Although Supplier will be receiving economic benefits from the solar farm in the form of tax credits, those economic benefits relate to the ownership of the solar farm rather than the use of the solar farm and, thus, are not considered in this assessment. 2. b Customer has the right to direct the use of the solar farm. Neither Customer nor Supplier decides how and for what purpose the solar farm is used during the period of use because those decisions are predetermined by the design of the asset (that is, the design of the solar farm has, in effect, programmed into the asset any relevant decision-making rights about how and for what purpose the solar farm is used throughout the period of use). Customer does not operate the solar farm; Supplier makes the decisions about the operation of the solar farm. However, Customer's design of the solar farm has given it the right to direct the use of the farm (as described in paragraph [842-10-15-20(b)(2)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-20)).

Customer does not control the use of the servers because Customer's only decision-making rights relate to deciding on the level of network services (the output of the servers) before the period of use—the level of network services cannot be changed during the period of use without modifying the contract. For example, even though Customer produces the data to be transported, that activity does not directly affect the configuration of the network services and, thus, it does not affect how and for what purpose the servers are used. Supplier is the only party that can make decisions about the use of the servers during the period of use. Supplier has the right to decide how data are transported using the servers, whether to reconfigure the servers, and whether to use the servers for another purpose. Accordingly, Supplier controls the use of the servers in providing network services to Customer. There is no need to assess whether the servers are identified assets because Customer does not have the right to control the use of the servers. ##### [842-10-55-127](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-127) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:c9713bc9ee664cae2ff362e3b4a784abb8f4e3d71f00d08b7e29e8111f5ec230 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

That is: 1. a The criterion in paragraph [842-10-15-28(a)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-28) is met because Lessee can benefit from each of the three pieces of equipment on its own or together with other readily available resources (for example, Lessee could readily lease or purchase an alternative truck or crane to use with the bulldozer). 2. b The criterion in paragraph [842-10-15-28(b)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-28) is met because, despite the fact that Lessee is leasing all three machines for one purpose (that is, to engage in construction operations), the machines are not highly dependent on or highly interrelated with each other. The machines are not, in effect, inputs to a combined single item for which Lessee is contracting. Lessor can fulfill each of its obligations to lease one of the underlying assets independently of its fulfillment of the other lease obligations, and Lessee's ability to derive benefit from the lease of each piece of equipment is not significantly affected by its decision to lease or not lease the other equipment from Lessor. ##### [842-10-55-134](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-134) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:ec1db5d509b5c8fa5edc8c3539242abe805d36826ed0a3d48a89a130d636348b Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. In accordance with paragraph [842-10-15-31](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-31), Lessee and Lessor will account for the nonlease maintenance services components separate from the three separate lease components (unless Lessee elects the practical expedient in paragraph [842-10-15-37](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-37) or Lessor elects the practical expedient in paragraph [842-10-15-42A](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-42A) when the conditions in that paragraph are met—see Case B \[paragraphs [842-10-55-138 through 55-140](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-138) \] for an example in which Lessee elects the practical expedient).

Lessee allocates the consideration in the contract to the separate lease and nonlease components. Several suppliers provide maintenance services that relate to similar equipment such that there are observable standalone prices for the maintenance services for each piece of leased equipment. In addition, even though Lessor, who is the manufacturer of the equipment, requires that all leases of its equipment include maintenance services, Lessee is able to establish observable standalone prices for the three lease components on the basis of the price other lessors lease similar equipment on a standalone basis. The standalone prices for the separate lease and nonlease components are as follows. - ![](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc-img/GUID-6CC77620-EAA6-448E-A4E4-40482A34D1BE-low.gif) Lease Maintenance Bulldozer " $200,000 " " $50,000 " Truck " 120,000 " " 20,000 " Crane " 240,000 " " 70,000 " " $560,000 " " $140,000 " ##### [842-10-55-137](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-137) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:354e6642cd9de3b20b38fdf4bfaf59bce3ebaf63ff710606ba34f3c0cb10ff75 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. Lessee first allocates the consideration in the contract ($600,000) to the lease and nonlease components on a relative basis, utilizing the observable standalone prices determined in paragraph [842-10-55-136](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-136).

Because Lessor regularly leases each piece of equipment bundled together with maintenance services on a standalone basis, there are observable standalone prices for each of the three combined components, each of which includes the lease and the maintenance services. Because each of the three separate lease components includes the lease of the equipment and the related maintenance services, the observable standalone price for each component in this scenario is greater than the observable standalone price for each separate lease component that does not include the maintenance services in Case A. ##### [842-10-55-140](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-140) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:f91e0b264948b88fd04e8b0aa945f59f1652c1116f408a69b43379fce01d0643 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

Lessor and Lessee enter into a five-year lease of a building. The contract designates that Lessee is required to pay for the costs relating to the asset, including the real estate taxes and the insurance on the building. The real estate taxes would be owed by Lessor regardless of whether it leased the building and who the lessee is. Lessor is the named insured on the building insurance policy (that is, the insurance protects Lessor's investment in the building, and Lessor will receive the proceeds from any claim). The annual lease payments are fixed at $10,000 per year, while the annual real estate taxes and insurance premium will vary and be billed by Lessor to Lessee each year. ##### [842-10-55-142](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-142) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:de05d4425dc99b5d817d8b55fb085a8b0dc12a2cd78ab4bfa0adef0824d473aa Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. The real estate taxes and the building insurance are not components of the contract. The contract includes a single lease component— the right to use the building. Lessee's payments of those amounts solely represent a reimbursement of Lessor's costs and do not represent payments for goods or services in addition to the right to use the building. However, because the real estate taxes and insurance premiums during the lease term are variable, those payments are variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate and are excluded from the measurement of the lease liability and recognized by Lessee in profit or loss in accordance with paragraph [842-20-25-5](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/20/#842-20-25-5) or [842-20-25-6](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/20/#842-20-25-6).Lessor also recognizes those payments as variable lease payments in accordance with paragraph [842-10-15-40A](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-40A) because the real estate taxes and insurance premiums are paid by Lessor to the taxing jurisdiction and insurance company and reimbursed by Lessee to Lessor. However, if Lessee paid the costs directly to the third parties, those lessor costs would not be recognized by Lessor as variable payments because of the requirement in paragraph [842-10-15-40A](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-40A). ##### [842-10-55-143](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-143) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:8ea423f348fcba8f5caa1c7034adc826d5f82a3e07b81f831aea7ce097ea5a30 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

There are no additional payments for real estate taxes or building insurance; however, the fixed payment is itemized in the contract (that is, $10,000 for rent, $2,000 for real estate taxes, and $1,000 for building insurance). Consistent with Case A, the taxes and insurance are not components of the contract. The contract includes a single lease component, the right to use the building. The $65,000 in payments Lessee will make over the 5-year lease term are all lease payments for the single component of the contract and, therefore, are included in the measurement of the lease liability. ##### [842-10-55-144](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-144) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:04e57d0d6471fbb10ad4365d9471eca53cbba7f17dc36e2cde69c92bc4cae9a9 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

Consistent with Case B, the taxes and insurance are not components of the contract. However, the common area maintenance is a component because Lessor's activities transfer services to Lessee. That is, Lessee receives a service from Lessor in the form of the common area maintenance activities it would otherwise have to undertake itself or pay another party to provide (for example, cleaning the lobby for its customers, removing snow from the parking lot for its employees and customers, and providing utilities). The common area maintenance is a single component in this contract rather than multiple components, because Lessor performs the activities as needed (for example, plows snow or undertakes minor repairs when and as necessary) over the same period of time. ##### [842-10-55-145](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-145) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:e3d768a94c976a89c14519b79f50c28115984c5c4224804721ef0d2590a0f4e5 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. Therefore, the contract in Case C includes two components—a lease component (that is, the right to use the building) and a nonlease component. The consideration in the contract of $65,000 is allocated between those 2 components (unless Lessee elects the practical expedient in paragraph [842-10-15-37](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-37) or Lessor elects the practical expedient in paragraph [842-10-15-42A](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-42A) when the conditions in that paragraph are met).

Lessor leases a gas-fired turbine plant to Lessee for eight years so that Lessee can produce electricity for its customers. The plant consists of the turbine housed within a building together with the land on which the building sits. The building was designed specifically to house the turbine, has a similar economic life as the turbine of approximately 15 years, and has no alternative use. The lease does not transfer ownership of any of the underlying assets to Lessee or grant Lessee an option to purchase any of the underlying assets. Lessor does not obtain a residual value guarantee from Lessee or any other unrelated third party. The present value of the lease payments is not substantially all of the aggregate fair value of the three underlying assets. ##### [842-10-55-147](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-147) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:a8514013f981d3a1317ee154326a59b03999cbd89aefd238c998259de2b1881c Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. While the lease of the plant includes the lease of multiple underlying assets, the leases of those underlying assets do not meet the second criterion necessary to be separate lease components, which is that the right to use the underlying asset is neither dependent on nor highly interrelated with the other rights of use in the contract. Therefore, the contract contains only one lease component. The rights to use the turbine, the building, and the land are highly interrelated because each is an input to the customized combined item for which Lessee has contracted (that is, the right to use a gas-fired turbine plant that can produce electricity for distribution to Lessee's customers). ##### [842-10-55-148](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-148) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:071aec48169e3e7803f2ddeea0f1754df7e2bafd83c2d151f89c392945bd2ab2 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. However, because the contract contains the lease of land, Lessee and Lessor also must consider the guidance in paragraph [842-10-15-29](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-29). Lessee and Lessor each conclude that the effect of accounting for the right to use the land as a separate lease component would be insignificant because Lessee's right to use the turbine, the building, and the land is coterminous and separating the right to use the land from the right to use the turbine and the building would not affect the lease classification of the turbine/building lease component. Lessee and Lessor each conclude that a single lease component comprising the turbine, the building, and the land would be classified as an operating lease, as would two separate lease components comprising the land and the turbine/building, respectively. ##### [842-10-55-149](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-149) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:5d3a4bb5e1bc3112848aa6a0a329d773a2e7a506ea1090677efa09d42d24c4f4 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. The predominant asset in the single lease component is the turbine. Lessee entered into the lease primarily to obtain the power-generation capabilities of the turbine. The building and land enable Lessee to obtain the benefits from use of the turbine. The land and building would have little, if any, use or value to Lessee in this contract without the turbine. Therefore, the remaining economic life of the turbine is considered in evaluating the classification of the single lease component. ##### [842-10-55-150](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-150) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:8c804c441d37ed5121f75af5a0bcc51f3f5bf10b2aaa6e78d334f8b36c018b58 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. Lessee and Lessor enter into a three-year lease of equipment that includes maintenance services on the equipment throughout the three-year lease term. Lessee will pay Lessor $100,000 per year plus an additional $7,000 each year that the equipment is operating a minimum number of hours at a specified level of productivity (that is, the equipment is not malfunctioning or inoperable). The potential $7,000 payment each year is variable because the payment depends on the equipment operating a minimum number of hours at a specified level of productivity.

In accordance with paragraph [842-10-15-35](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-35), variable payments other than those that depend on an index or a rate are not accounted for as consideration in the contract by Lessee. Therefore, the consideration in the contract to be allocated by Lessee to the equipment lease and the maintenance services at lease commencement includes only the fixed payments of $100,000 each year (or $300,000 in total). Lessee allocates the consideration in the contract to the equipment lease and the maintenance services on the basis of the standalone prices of each, which, for purposes of this example, are $285,000 and $45,000, respectively. - ![](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc-img/GUID-809D6D9E-19F7-4714-B0D3-E2B40154EA88-low.gif) "Standalone Price" "Relative Standalone Price" Lease " $285,000 " " $259,091 " Maintenance " 45,000 " " 40,909 " " $330,000 " " $300,000 " Each $100,000 annual fixed payment and each variable payment are allocated to the equipment lease and the maintenance services on the same basis as the initial allocation of the consideration in the contract (that is, 86.4 percent to the equipment lease and 13.6 percent to the maintenance services).

In accordance with paragraphs [842-10-15-39 through 15-40](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-39) , Lessor also concludes that the potential variable payments should not be accounted for as consideration in the contract. That is because the potential variable payment each year is not solely related to performance of the nonlease maintenance services; the quality and condition of the underlying asset also substantively affect whether Lessor will earn those amounts. Therefore, Lessor's allocation of the consideration in the contract ($300,000) in this Example is the same as Lessee. Lessor will allocate, in accordance with paragraph [842-10-15-40](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-15-40), the variable payments between the lease and nonlease maintenance services (on the same basis as the initial allocation of the consideration in the contract), when and if the productivity targets are met. Lessor will recognize the portion allocated to the lease at that time and will recognize the portion allocated to the nonlease maintenance services in accordance with the guidance on satisfaction of performance obligations in Topic 606 on revenue from contracts with customers. ##### [842-10-55-153](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-153) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:2fb5510ea32e0b29e996fd55dcbfb0dc66a8146f1826eee1cca9ef99cb88f0fb Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

In contrast to Case A, Lessor concludes that the variable payments relate specifically to an outcome from Lessor's performance of its maintenance services. Therefore, Lessor evaluates the variable payments in accordance with the variable consideration guidance in paragraphs [606-10-32-5 through 32-13](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/606/10/#606-10-32-5) . If Lessor estimates, using the most likely amount method, that it will be entitled to receive the $21,000 in variable payments and that it is probable that including that amount in the transaction price for the maintenance services would not result in a significant revenue reversal when the uncertainty of the performance bonus is resolved, the $21,000 would be included in the consideration in the contract. Because allocating the $21,000 entirely to the maintenance services would not result in an allocation that is consistent with the allocation objective in paragraph [606-10-32-28](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/606/10/#606-10-32-28) (that is, it would result in allocating $61,909 to the maintenance services and the remainder to the equipment lease, which would not reasonably depict the consideration to which Lessor expects to be entitled for each component), the entire consideration in the contract of $321,000 is allocated on a relative standalone price basis as follows. - ![](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc-img/GUID-50A3FBBD-5AE1-47C3-9DA7-026CACA56163-low.gif) "Standalone Price" "Relative Standalone Price" Lease " $285,000 " " $277,227 " Maintenance " 45,000 " " 43,773 " " $330,000 " " $321,000 " ##### [842-10-55-156](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-156) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:a6223ba9b174e68ad54be3907593635beb141d3753f0bac0805cd251141ef357 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

Lessor concludes that only $28,000 is probable of not resulting in a significant revenue reversal.

Lessee accounts for the modification as a new contract, separate from the original contract. This is because the modification grants Lessee an additional right of use as compared with the original contract, and the increase in the lease payments is commensurate with the standalone price of the additional right of use. Accordingly, from the effective date of the modification, Lessee would have 2 separate contracts, each of which contain a single lease component—the original, unmodified contract for 10,000 square feet of office space and the new contract for 10,000 additional square feet of office space, respectively.

At the beginning of Year 6, Lessee's lease liability and its right-of-use asset both equal $421,236 (that is, because the lease payments are made annually in arrears and because the lease payments are even throughout the lease term, the lease liability and right-of-use asset will be equal). ##### [842-10-55-164](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-164) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:0008b186c7ec27c787bcb0b11db4f78bfd872819896408aa88add22cbd7cb66b Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. The modification does not grant an additional right of use to the lessee; rather, it changes (modifies) an attribute of the right to use the 10,000 square feet of office space Lessee already controls.

Because the modification does not grant Lessee an additional right of use, the modification cannot be a separate contract.

Consequently, the modified lease liability equals $772,594.

Consistent with Case A, at the effective date of the modification, the lessee remeasures its lease liability based on the 10-year remaining lease term, 10 remaining payments of $110,000, and its incremental borrowing rate of 7 percent.

The increase to the lease liability of $351,358 is recorded as an adjustment to the right-of-use asset (that is, there is no income or loss effect from the modification).

The increase in the lease payments (of $50,000 per year) is at a substantial discount to the market rate at the date the modification is agreed to for leases substantially similar to that for the new 10,000 square feet of office space that cannot be attributed solely to the circumstances of the contract.

Instead, Lessee accounts for the modified contract, which contains 2 separate lease components—first, the original 10,000 square feet of office space and, second, the right to use the additional 10,000 square feet of office space for 4 years that commences 1 year after the effective date of the modification. There are no nonlease components of the modified contract. The total lease payments, after the modification, are $700,000 (1 payment of $100,000 + 4 payments of $150,000). ##### [842-10-55-171](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-171) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:a6fcaf9311e31ae3d16decf1ce451b48542b0513e1f13018de3e5d397b687125 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. Lessee allocates the lease payments in the modified contract to the 2 separate lease components on a relative standalone price basis, which, in this Example, results in the allocation of $388,889 to the original space lease and $311,111 to the additional space lease. The allocation is based on the remaining lease terms of each separate lease component (that is, 5 years for the original 10,000-square-foot lease and 4 years for the additional 10,000-square-foot lease). The remaining lease cost for each separate lease component is equal to the total payments, as allocated, which will be recognized on a straight-line basis over their respective lease terms. Lessee remeasures the lease liability for the original space lease as of the effective date of the modification—the lease classification of which does not change as a result of the modification—on the basis of all of the following: 1. a A remaining lease term of 5 years 2. b Annual allocated lease payments of $77,778 in Years 6 through 10 (see paragraph [842-10-55-173](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-173)) 3. c Lessee's incremental borrowing rate at the effective date of the modification of 7 percent. ##### [842-10-55-172](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-172) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:cff328b38c84ef13774cc41a5f2e2cee64b66383a2370a6a3e2ae6fd8d5c1ef8 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. The remeasured lease liability for the original space lease equals $318,904.

During Year 6, Lessee recognizes lease cost of $77,778. At the end of Year 6, Lessee makes its lease payment of $100,000, of which $77,778 is allocated to the lease of the original office space and $22,222 is allocated to the lease of the additional office space as a prepayment of rent. Lessee allocates the lease payment in this manner to reflect even payments for the even use of the separate lease components over their respective lease terms. ##### [842-10-55-174](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-174) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:2c415b9d2708ae3809e1231b455a84b4d038d8c2fbdd7d68f46bfdf4aa37ab1b Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

Lessee enters into a 10-year lease for 10,000 square feet of office space. The annual lease payment is initially $100,000, paid in arrears, and increases 5 percent each year during the lease term. Lessee's incremental borrowing rate at lease commencement is 6 percent. Lessee does not provide a residual value guarantee. The lease does not transfer ownership of the office space to Lessee or grant Lessee an option to purchase the space. The lease is an operating lease for all of the following reasons: 1. a The lease term is 10 years, while the office building has a remaining economic life of 40 years. 2. b The fair value of the office space is estimated to be significantly in excess of the present value of the lease payments. 3. c The office space is expected to have an alternative use to Lessor at the end of the lease term. ##### [842-10-55-178](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-178) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:0542643f25fb361b9dd7e8d6068e850815d56940321fc353538f3d9e98992e10 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

The annual lease payments are $100,000 in the first year, increasing by 5 percent each year thereafter, payable in arrears. The lease term is not for a major part of the remaining economic life of the office space (40 years), and the present value of the lease payments is not substantially all of the fair value of the office space. Furthermore, the title does not transfer to Lessee as a consequence of the lease, the lease does not contain an option for Lessee to purchase the office space, and the asset is not specialized such that it clearly has an alternative use to Lessor at the end of the lease term. Consequently, the lease is classified as an operating lease. ##### [842-10-55-191](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-191) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:76e34a87ce6354a7f4472d32db1115dd117c2fbcc4ad88dd0328181ab1e10713 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. At the beginning of Year 6, Lessee and Lessor agree to amend the original lease for the remaining 5 years to include an additional 10,000 square feet of office space in the same building for a total annual fixed payment of $150,000. The increase in total consideration is at a discount both to the current market rate for the new 10,000 square feet of office space and in the context of that particular contract.

Because the change in pricing of the lease is not commensurate with the standalone price for the additional right-of-use asset, Lessor does not account for the modification as a new lease, separate from the original 10-year lease. Instead, Lessor accounts for the modified lease prospectively from the effective date of the modification, recognizing the lease payments to be made under the modified lease of $750,000 ($150,000 × 5 years), net of Lessor's accrued rent asset of $76,331, on a straight-line basis over the remaining 5-year lease term ($673,669 ÷ 5 years = $134,734 per year). At the end of the lease, Lessor will have recognized as lease income the $1,302,564 in lease payments it receives from Lessee during the 10-year lease term. ##### [842-10-55-194](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-194) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:9f5bf710d0e4060ca500ae3d9db54b6c71e4c88870e4fd8129c3a135ef86eb2b Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. Lessor enters into a four-year lease of a piece of nonspecialized equipment. The annual lease payments are $81,000 in the first year, increasing by 5 percent each year thereafter, payable in arrears. The estimated residual value of the equipment is $90,000, of which none is guaranteed. The remaining economic life of the equipment at lease commencement is seven years. The carrying amount of the equipment and its fair value are both $425,000 at the commencement date. The lease is not for a major part of the remaining economic life of the equipment, and the present value of the lease payments is not substantially all of the fair value of the equipment. Furthermore, title does not transfer to Lessee as a result of the lease, the lease does not contain an option for Lessee to purchase the underlying asset, and because the asset is nonspecialized, it is expected to have an alternative use to Lessor at the end of the lease term.

At the beginning of Year 3, Lessee and Lessor agree to extend the lease term by two years. That is, the modified lease is now a six-year lease, as compared with the original four-year lease. The additional two years were not an option when the original lease was negotiated. The modification alters the Lessee's right to use the equipment; it does not grant Lessee an additional right of use. Therefore, Lessor does not account for the modification as a separate contract from the original four-year lease contract. ##### [842-10-55-196](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-196) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:44cf1a7dff3f8397f0065440ca0d8fbb624b19306e7045612f34f04c74047778 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. On the effective date of the modification, the fair value of the equipment is $346,250, and the remaining economic life of the equipment is 5 years. The estimated residual value of the equipment is $35,000, of which none is guaranteed. The modified lease is for a major part of the remaining economic life of the equipment at the effective date of the modification (four years out of the five-year-remaining economic life of the equipment).

In accounting for the modification, Lessor determines the discount rate for the modified lease (that is, the rate implicit in the modified lease) to be 7.6 percent. Lessor recognizes the net investment in the modified lease of $346,250 and derecognizes both the accrued rent and the equipment at the effective date of the modification. Lessor also recognizes, in accordance with paragraph [842-10-25-15(b)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-25-15), selling profit of $34,169 ($320,139 lease receivable - $8,510 accrued rent balance - the $277,460 carrying amount of the equipment derecognized, net of the unguaranteed residual asset \[$277,460 = $303,571 - $26,111\]).

No other terms of the contract are modified. Concurrent with the execution of the modification, Lessor obtains a residual value guarantee from an unrelated third party for $40,000. Consistent with Case A (paragraphs [842-10-55-194 through 55-197](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-194) ), at the effective date of the modification the fair value of the equipment is $346,250, the carrying amount of the equipment is $303,571, and Lessor's accrued rent balance is $8,510.

Lessor enters into a six-year lease of a piece of new, nonspecialized equipment with a nine-year economic life. The annual lease payments are $11,000, payable in arrears. The estimated residual value of the equipment is $21,000, of which $15,000 is guaranteed by a third-party unrelated to Lessee or Lessor. The lease does not contain an option for Lessee to purchase the equipment, and the title does not transfer to Lessee as a consequence of the lease. The fair value of the equipment at lease commencement is $65,240, which is equal to its cost (and carrying amount). Lessor incurs no initial direct costs in connection with the lease. The rate implicit in the lease is 7.5 percent such that the present value of the lease payments is $51,632 and does not amount to substantially all of the fair value of the equipment. ##### [842-10-55-202](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-202) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:b965729c5e887d948c35a4c572d20fe5081fa814623758e391d0cfc69fdabf3b Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

However, the sum of the present value of the lease payments and the present value of the residual value of the underlying asset guaranteed by the third-party guarantor is $61,352, which is substantially all of the fair value of the equipment, and collectibility of the lease payments is probable. Consequently, the lease is classified as a direct financing lease. Lessor recognizes the net investment in the lease of $65,240 (which includes the lease receivable of $61,352 and the present value of the unguaranteed residual value of $3,888 \[the present value of the difference between the expected residual value of $21,000 and the guaranteed residual value of $15,000\]) and derecognizes the equipment with a carrying amount of $65,240. ##### [842-10-55-203](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-203) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:16166307933035ad2104d18f0c6f27f848c2b901d0830ac44638204ee97b9de3 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. At the end of Year 1, Lessor receives a lease payment of $11,000 from Lessee and recognizes interest income of $4,893 ($65,240 × 7.5%).

In accounting for the modification in accordance with paragraph [842-10-25-16(a)](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-25-16), Lessor carries forward the balance of the net investment in the lease of $59,133 immediately before the effective date of the modification as the opening balance of the net investment in the modified lease. To retain the same net investment in the lease even while the lease payments, the lease term, and the estimated residual value have all changed, Lessor adjusts the discount rate for the lease from the rate implicit in the modified lease of 8.857 percent to 6.95 percent. This discount rate is used to calculate interest income on the net investment in the lease throughout the remaining term of the modified lease and will result, at the end of the modified lease term, in a net investment balance that equals the estimated residual value of the underlying asset of $33,000. ##### [842-10-55-206](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-206) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:0e7886f4d70e541a669a2d3646ba4a042a8cc6e5228a504a5a72207527e8dc1f Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

After the effective date of the modification, Lessor accounts for the sales-type lease in the same manner as any other sales-type lease in accordance with Subtopic 842-30. ##### [842-10-55-208](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-208) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:80169cda39f45fc4a1c8cc3c64bf275a06309a15d63499d0a7fb39e309dacf9e Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. At the end of Year 1, the lease term is reduced by 2 years, and the lease payments are reduced to $9,000 per year for the remaining 3-year lease term. The estimated residual value is revised to $33,000, of which only $13,000 is guaranteed by an unrelated third party. The fair value of the equipment at the effective date of the modification is $56,000. The modified lease does not transfer the title of the equipment to Lessee or grant Lessee an option to purchase the equipment. The modified lease is classified as an operating lease because it does not meet any of the criteria to be classified as a sales-type lease or as a direct financing lease. ##### [842-10-55-209](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-209) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:a4388ec891b2f229601baa3e5022b58147cfd97fce0b10c3442fbc2340c296ed Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps. Therefore, at the effective date of the modification, Lessor derecognizes the net investment in the lease, which has a carrying amount of $59,133, and recognizes the equipment at that amount. Collectibility of the lease payments is probable; therefore, Lessor will recognize the $27,000 ($9,000 × 3 years) in lease payments on a straight-line basis over the 3-year modified lease term, as well as depreciation on the rerecognized equipment. ##### [842-10-55-210](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-210) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:f10a68bae8141f710101416603a1680524fc4c6cff7d3268f9db73f4a9144530 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

Lessee enters into a 5-year lease of equipment with annual lease payments of $59,000, payable at the end of each year. There are no initial direct costs incurred by Lessee or lease incentives. At the end of Year 5, Lessee has an option to purchase the equipment for $5,000. The expected residual value of the equipment at the end of the lease is $75,000. Because the exercise price of the purchase option is significantly discounted from the expected fair value of the equipment at the time the purchase option becomes exercisable, Lessee concludes that it is reasonably certain to exercise the purchase option. The fair value of the equipment at the commencement date is $250,000, and its economic life is 7 years. The discount rate for the lease, which is Lessee's incremental borrowing rate because the rate implicit in the lease is not available, is 6.5 percent. ##### [842-10-55-212](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-212) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:53dcb55e0425b76fa0d96919a0fe1fff0b2c66c488e981c0e762a26f1f3c4339 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

Lessee enters into a 5-year lease of specialized equipment with annual lease payments of $65,000, payable in arrears. There are no initial direct costs or lease incentives. At the end of Year 5, Lessee has an option to purchase the equipment for $90,000, which is the expected fair value of the equipment at that date. Lessor constructed the equipment specifically for the needs of Lessee. Furthermore, the specialized equipment is vital to Lessee's business; without this asset, Lessee would be required to halt operations while a new asset was built or customized. As such, Lessee concludes that it is reasonably certain to exercise the purchase option because the specialized nature, specifications of the asset, and its role in Lessee's operations create a significant economic incentive for Lessee to do so. The fair value of the equipment at the commencement date is $440,000, and its economic life is 10 years. Lessee's incremental borrowing rate is 6.5 percent, which reflects the fixed rate at which Lessee could borrow an amount similar to that of the lease payments (\[$65,000 x 5 lease payments\] + the $90,000 purchase option exercise price = $415,000) in the same currency, for the same term, and with similar collateral as in the lease at the commencement date. ##### [842-10-55-219](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-219) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:229cf521d10882cc3f097a63df9ba758e2e1feebe9a8b1155cec6700614f0d32 Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

Because Lessee has not remeasured the lease liability for another reason, Lessee does not make an adjustment to the lease liability to reflect the Consumer Price Index at the end of the reporting period; that is, the lease liability continues to reflect annual lease payments of $100,000 (8 remaining annual payments of $100,000, discounted at the rate of 8 percent is $574,664). However, the Year 2 payment amount of $102,400 (the $100,000 annual fixed payment + $2,400 variable lease payment) will be recognized in profit or loss for Year 2 of the lease and classified as cash flow from operations in Lessee's statement of cash flows.

Lessee enters into a 10-year lease of an asset, which it can terminate at the end of each year beginning at the end of Year 6. Lease payments are $50,000 per year during the 10-year term, payable at the beginning of each year. If Lessee terminates the lease at the end of Year 6, Lessee must pay a penalty to Lessor of $20,000.

At the commencement date, Lessee concludes that it is not reasonably certain it will continue to use the underlying asset after Year 6, having considered both the significance of the termination penalty (in absolute terms and in relation to the remaining lease payments after the date the termination option becomes exercisable) and the other factors in paragraph [842-10-55-26](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-26). ##### [842-10-55-238](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-55-238) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:11.051Z Record version: sha256:95827b75b27d2adfa2a36900c7be895dbd7e1fa278da71df5bfaa67daad477fb Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.

Lessor capitalizes initial direct costs of $10,000, which it recognizes ratably over the lease term, consistent with its recognition of lease income. The $10,000 in broker commissions is an initial direct cost because that cost was incurred only as a direct result of obtaining the lease (that is, only as a direct result of the lease being executed). None of the other costs incurred by Lessor meet the definition of initial direct costs because they would have been incurred even if the lease had not been executed.

It is required by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to file or furnish financial statements, or does file or furnish financial statements (including voluntary filers), with the SEC (including other entities whose financial statements or financial information are required to be or are included in a filing). It is required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Act), as amended, or rules or regulations promulgated under the Act, to file or furnish financial statements with a regulatory agency other than the SEC. It is required to file or furnish financial statements with a foreign or domestic regulatory agency in preparation for the sale of or for purposes of issuing securities that are not subject to contractual restrictions on transfer. It has issued, or is a conduit bond obligor for, securities that are traded, listed, or quoted on an exchange or an over-the-counter market. It has one or more securities that are not subject to contractual restrictions on transfer, and it is required by law, contract, or regulation to prepare U.S. GAAP financial statements (including notes) and make them publicly available on a periodic basis (for example, interim or annual periods).

An entity shall apply the pending content that links to this paragraph using one of the following two methods: 1. 1 Retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented in the financial statements with the cumulative effect of initially applying the pending content that links to this paragraph recognized at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented, subject to the guidance in (d) through (gg). Under this transition method, the application date shall be the later of the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements and the [commencement date of the lease](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/c/#commencement-date-of-the-lease-commencement-date "The date on which a lessor makes an underlying asset available for use by a lessee.

Under this transition method, the application date shall be the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the pending content that links to this paragraph. 4. d An entity shall adjust equity and, if the entity elects the transition method in (c)(1), the other comparative amounts disclosed for each prior period presented in the financial statements, as if the pending content that links to this paragraph had always been applied, subject to the requirements in (e) through (gg). 5. e If a [lessee](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/l/#lessee "An entity that enters into a contract to obtain the right to use an underlying asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.") elects not to apply the recognition and measurement requirements in the pending content that links to this paragraph to [short-term leases](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/s/#short-term-lease "A lease that, at the commencement date, has a lease term of 12 months or less and does not include an option to purchase the underlying asset that the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise."), the lessee shall not apply the approach described in (k) through (t) to short-term leases.

From the perspective of a lessor, any lease other than a sales-type lease or a direct financing lease.") in accordance with Topic 840 will be classified as operating leases, and all existing leases that were classified as capital leases in accordance with Topic 840 will be classified as [finance leases](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/f/#finance-lease "From the perspective of a lessee, a lease that meets one or more of the criteria in paragraph 842-10-25-2.")). 3. 3 An entity need not reassess [initial direct costs](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/i/#initial-direct-costs "Incremental costs of a lease that would not have been incurred if the lease had not been obtained.") for any existing leases. 2. g An entity also may elect a practical expedient, which must be applied consistently by an entity to all of its leases (including those for which the entity is a lessee or a lessor) to use hindsight in determining the [lease term](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/l/#lease-term "The noncancellable period for which a lessee has the right to use an underlying asset, together with all of the following: Periods covered by an option to extend the lease if the lessee is reasonably certain to exercise that option Periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if the lessee is reasonably certain not to exercise that option Periods covered by an option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease in which exercise of the option is controlled by the lessor.") (that is, when considering lessee options to extend or terminate the lease and to purchase the [underlying asset](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/u/#underlying-asset "An asset that is the subject of a lease for which a right to use that asset has been conveyed to a lessee. The underlying asset could be a physically distinct portion of a single asset.")) and in assessing impairment of the entity's [right-of-use assets](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/r/#right-of-use-asset "An asset that represents a lessee's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term."). This practical expedient may be elected separately or in conjunction with either one or both of the practical expedients in (f) and (gg). 3. gg An entity also may elect a practical expedient to not assess whether existing or expired land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases under Topic 840 are or contain a lease under this Topic. For purposes of (gg), a land easement (also commonly referred to as a right of way) refers to a right to use, access, or cross another entity's land for a specified purpose. This practical expedient shall be applied consistently by an entity to all its existing and expired land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases under Topic 840. This practical expedient may be elected separately or in conjunction with either one or both of the practical expedients in (f) and (g). An entity that elects this practical expedient for existing or expired land easements shall apply the pending content that links to this paragraph to land easements entered into (or modified) on or after the date that the entity first applies the pending content that links to this paragraph as described in (a) and (b). An entity that previously accounted for existing or expired land easements as leases under Topic 840 shall not be eligible for this practical expedient for those land easements. **Amounts previously recognized in respect of business combinations** - 1. h If an entity has previously recognized an asset or a liability in accordance with Topic 805 on [business combinations](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/b/#business-combination "A transaction or other event in which an acquirer obtains control of one or more businesses. Transactions sometimes referred to as true mergers or mergers of equals also are business combinations. See also Acquisition by a Not-for-Profit Entity.") relating to favorable or unfavorable terms of an operating lease acquired as part of a business combination, the entity shall do all of the following: 1. 1 Derecognize that asset and liability (except for those arising from leases that are classified as operating leases in accordance with Topic 842 for which the entity is a lessor). 2. 2 Adjust the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset by a corresponding amount if the entity is a lessee. 3. 3 Make a corresponding adjustment to equity if assets or liabilities arise from leases that are classified as [sales-type leases](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/s/#sales-type-lease "From the perspective of a lessor, a lease that meets one or more of the criteria in paragraph 842-10-25-2 and is not an operating lease in accordance with paragraph 842-10-25-3A.") or [direct financing leases](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/d/#direct-financing-leases "Glossary term superseded by Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02.") in accordance with Topic 842 for which the entity is a lessor.

If the initial measurement of the right-of-use asset in (m) is adjusted for the carrying amount of a liability recognized in accordance with Topic 420 on exit or disposal cost obligations for the lease, the lessee shall apply the recognition and subsequent measurement guidance in Sections 842-20-25 and 842-20-35, respectively, when the right-of-use asset has been impaired. 5. o For each lease classified as a finance lease in accordance with paragraph [842-10-25-2](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-25-2), a lessee shall measure the right-of-use asset as the applicable proportion of the lease liability at the commencement date, which can be imputed from the lease liability determined in accordance with (l). The applicable proportion is the remaining lease term at the application date as determined in (c) relative to the total lease term.

Any difference between the carrying amount of the capital lease asset and the capital lease obligation shall be accounted for in the same manner as prepaid or accrued rent. 2. 2 If an entity elects the transition method in (c)(1) and the lease commenced before the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements or if the entity elects the transition method in (c)(2), recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability in accordance with paragraph [842-20-35-3](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/20/#842-20-35-3)at the application date as determined in (c). 3. 3 If an entity elects the transition method in (c)(1) and the lease commenced after the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements, recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability in accordance with paragraph [842-20-30-1](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/20/#842-20-30-1) at the commencement date of the lease. 4. 4 Account for the operating lease in accordance with the guidance in Subtopic 842-20 after initial recognition in accordance with (s)(2) or (s)(3). 5. 5 Write off any unamortized initial direct costs that do not meet the definition of initial direct costs in this Topic as an adjustment to equity unless the entity elects the transition method in (c)(1) and the costs were incurred after the beginning of the earliest period presented, in which case those costs shall be written off as an adjustment to earnings in the period the costs were incurred. 3. t If a modification to the contractual terms and conditions occurs on or after the effective date, and the modification does not result in a separate contract in accordance with paragraph [842-10-25-8](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-25-8), or the lessee is required to remeasure the lease liability in accordance with paragraph [842-20-35-4](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/20/#842-20-35-4), the lessee shall subsequently account for the lease in accordance with the requirements in this Topic beginning on the effective date of the modification or the remeasurement date. **Build-to-suit lease arrangements** - 1. u A lessee shall apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases accounted for as build-to-suit arrangements under Topic 840 that are existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements (if an entity elects the transition method in (c)(1)) or that are existing at the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the pending content that links to this paragraph (if an entity elects the transition method in (c)(2)) as follows: 1. 1 If an entity has recognized assets and liabilities solely as a result of a transaction's build-to-suit designation in accordance with Topic 840, the entity shall do the following: 1. i If an entity elects the transition method in (c)(1), the entity shall derecognize those assets and liabilities at the later of the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements and the date that the lessee is determined to be the accounting owner of the asset in accordance with Topic 840. 2. ii If an entity elects the transition method in (c)(2), the entity shall derecognize those assets and liabilities at the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the pending content that links to this paragraph. 3. iii Any difference in (i) or (ii) shall be recorded as an adjustment to equity at the date that those assets and liabilities were derecognized in accordance with (u)(1)(i) or (ii). 4. iv The lessee shall apply the lessee transition requirements in (k) through (t) to the lease. 2. 2 If the construction period of the build-to-suit lease concluded before the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements (if the entity elects the transition method in (c)(1)) or if it concluded before the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the pending content that links to this paragraph (if the entity elects the transition method in (c)(2)), and the transaction qualified as a sale and leaseback transaction in accordance with Subtopic 840-40 before that date, the entity shall follow the general lessee transition requirements for the lease. **Lessors** **Leases previously classified as operating leases under Topic 840** - 1. v For each lease classified as an operating lease in accordance with this Topic, a lessor shall do all of the following: 1. 1 Continue to recognize the carrying amount of the underlying asset and any lease assets or liabilities at the application date as determined in (c) as the same amounts recognized by the lessor immediately before that date in accordance with Topic 840. 2. 2 Account for previously recognized securitized receivables as secured borrowings in accordance with other Topics. 3. 3 If a lessor does not elect the practical expedients described in (f), write off any unamortized initial direct costs that do not meet the definition of initial direct costs in this Topic as an adjustment to equity unless the entity elects the transition method in (c)(1) and the costs were incurred after the beginning of the earliest period presented, in which case those costs shall be written off as an adjustment to earnings in the period the costs were incurred. 2. w For each lease classified as a direct financing or a sales-type lease in accordance with this Topic, the objective is to account for the lease, beginning on the application date as determined in (c) as if it had always been accounted for as a direct financing lease or a sales-type lease in accordance with this Topic. Consequently, a lessor shall do all of the following: 1. 1 Derecognize the carrying amount of the underlying asset at the application date as determined in (c). 2. 2 Recognize a [net investment in the lease](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/n/#net-investment-in-the-lease "For a sales-type lease, the sum of the lease receivable and the unguaranteed residual asset. For a direct financing lease, the sum of the lease receivable and the unguaranteed residual asset, net of any deferred selling profit.") at the application date as determined in (c)as if the lease had been accounted for as a direct financing lease or a sales-type lease in accordance with Subtopic 842-30 since lease commencement. 3. 3 Record any difference between the amounts in (w)(1) and (w)(2) as follows: 1. i If an entity elects the transition method in (c)(1), as an adjustment to equity (if the commencement date of the lease was before the beginning of the earliest period presented or if the lease was acquired as part of a business combination; see also (h)(3)) or earnings (if the commencement date of the lease was on or after the beginning of the earliest period presented). 2. ii If an entity elects the transition method in (c)(2), as an adjustment to equity. 4. 4 Account for the lease in accordance with this Topic after the application date as determined in (c). **Leases previously classified as direct financing or sales-type leases under Topic 840** - 1. x For each lease classified as a direct financing lease or a sales-type lease in accordance with this Topic, do all of the following: 1. 1 Continue to recognize a net investment in the lease at the application date as determined in (c) at the carrying amount of the net investment at that date. This would include any unamortized initial direct costs capitalized as part of the lessor's net investment in the lease in accordance with Topic 840. 2. 2 If an entity elects the transition method in (c)(1), before the effective date, a lessor shall account for the lease in accordance with Topic 840. 3. 3 Regardless of the transition method selected in (c), beginning on the effective date, a lessor shall account for the lease in accordance with the recognition, subsequent measurement, presentation, and disclosure guidance in Subtopic 842-30. 4. 4 Beginning on the effective date, if a lessor modifies the lease (and the modification is not accounted for as a separate contract in accordance with paragraph [842-10-25-8](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-25-8)), it shall account for the modified lease in accordance with paragraph [842-10-25-16](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-25-16) if the lease is classified as a direct financing lease before the modification or paragraph [842-10-25-17](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-25-17) if the lease is classified as a sales-type lease before the modification. A lessor shall not remeasure the net investment in the lease on or after the effective date unless the lease is modified (and the modification is not accounted for as a separate contract in accordance with paragraph [842-10-25-8](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-25-8)). 2. y For each lease classified as an operating lease in accordance with this Topic, the objective is to account for the lease, beginning on the application date as determined in (c), as if it had always been accounted for as an operating lease in accordance with this Topic. Consequently, a lessor shall do all of the following: 1. 1 Recognize the underlying asset at what the carrying amount would have been had the lease been classified as an operating lease under Topic 840. 2. 2 Derecognize the carrying amount of the net investment in the lease. 3. 3 Record any difference between the amounts in (y)(1) and (y)(2) as follows: 1. i If an entity elects the transition method in (c)(1), as an adjustment to equity (if the commencement date of the lease was before the beginning of the earliest period presented or if the lease was acquired as part of a business combination) or earnings (if the commencement date of the lease was on or after the beginning of the earliest period presented). 2. ii If an entity elects the transition method in (c)(2), as an adjustment to equity. 4. 4 Subsequently account for the operating lease in accordance with this Topic and the underlying asset in accordance with other Topics. **Leases previously classified as leveraged leases under Topic 840** - 1. z For leases that were classified as [leveraged leases](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/l/#leveraged-lease "From the perspective of a lessor, a lease that was classified as a leveraged lease in accordance with the leases guidance in effect before the effective date and for which the commencement date is before the effective date.") in accordance with Topic 840, and for which the commencement date is before the effective date, a lessor shall apply the requirements in Subtopic 842-50. If a leveraged lease is modified on or after the effective date, it shall be accounted for as a new lease as of the effective date of the modification in accordance with the guidance in Subtopics 842-10 and 842-30. 1. 1 A lessor shall apply the pending content that links to this paragraph to a leveraged lease that meets the criteria in (z) that is acquired in a business combination or an [acquisition by a not-for-profit entity](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/a/#acquisition-by-a-not-for-profit-entity "A transaction or other event in which a not-for-profit acquirer obtains control of one or more nonprofit activities or businesses and initially recognizes their assets and liabilities in the acquirer's financial statements. When applicable guidance in Topic 805 is applied by a not-for-profit entity, the term business combination has the same meaning as this term has for a for-profit entity. Likewise, a reference to business combinations in guidance that links to Topic 805 has the same meaning as a reference to acquisitions by not-for-profit entities.") on or after the effective date. **Sale and leaseback transactions before the effective date** - 1. aa If a previous sale and leaseback transaction was accounted for as a sale and a leaseback in accordance with Topic 840, an entity shall not reassess the transaction to determine whether the transfer of the asset would have been a sale in accordance with paragraphs [842-40-25-1 through 25-3](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/40/#842-40-25-1) . 2. bb If a previous sale and leaseback transaction was accounted for as a failed sale and leaseback transaction in accordance with Topic 840 and remains a failed sale at the effective date: 1. 1 If an entity elects the transition method in (c)(1), the entity shall reassess whether a sale would have occurred at any point on or after the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements in accordance with paragraphs [842-40-25-1 through 25-3](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/40/#842-40-25-1) . The sale and leaseback transaction shall be accounted for on a modified retrospective basis from the date a sale is determined to have occurred. 2. 2 If an entity elects the transition method in (c)(2), the entity shall reassess whether a sale would have occurred at the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the pending content that links to this paragraph in accordance with paragraphs [842-40-25-1 through 25-3](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/40/#842-40-25-1) and recognize the sale as an adjustment to equity. The entity shall then account for the leaseback in accordance with the guidance in Subtopic 842-20 after the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the pending content that links to this paragraph. 3. cc An entity shall account for the leaseback in accordance with the lessee and lessor transition requirements in (k) through (y). 4. dd If a previous sale and leaseback transaction was accounted for as a sale and capital leaseback in accordance with Topic 840, the transferor shall continue to recognize any deferred gain or loss that exists at the later of the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements and the date of the sale of the underlying asset (if an entity elects the transition method in (c)(1)) or that exists at the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the pending content that links to this paragraph (if an entity elects the transition method in (c)(2)), as follows: 1. 1 If the underlying asset is land only, straight line over the remaining lease term. 2. 2 If the underlying asset is not land only and the leaseback is a finance lease, in proportion to the amortization of the right-of-use asset. 3. 3 If the underlying asset is not land only and the leaseback is an operating lease, in proportion to the recognition in profit or loss of the total lease cost. 5. ee If a previous sale and leaseback transaction was accounted for as a sale and operating leaseback in accordance with Topic 840, the transferor shall do the following: 1. 1 Recognize any deferred gain or loss not resulting from off-market terms (that is, where the consideration for the sale of the asset is not at [fair value](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/f/#fair-value "The price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.") or the lease payments are not at market rates) as a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity unless the entity elects the transition method in (c)(1) and the date of sale is after the beginning of the earliest period presented, in which case any deferred gain or loss not resulting from off-market terms shall be recognized in earnings in the period the sale occurred. 2. 2 Recognize any deferred loss resulting from the consideration for the sale of the asset not being at fair value or the lease payments not being at market rates as an adjustment to the leaseback right-of-use asset at the later of the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements and the date of the sale of the underlying asset (if an entity elects the transition method in (c)(1)) or at the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the pending content that links to this paragraph (if an entity elects the transition method in (c)(2)). 3. 3 Recognize any deferred gain resulting from the consideration for the sale of the asset not being at fair value or the lease payments not being at market rates as a financial liability at the later of the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements and the date of the sale of the underlying asset (if an entity elects the transition method in (c)(1)) or at the beginning of the reporting period in which the entity first applies the pending content that links to this paragraph (if an entity elects the transition method in (c)(2)). ##### [842-10-65-2](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/842/10/#842-10-65-2) Pending content: no Source downloaded (UTC): 2026-09-10T01:56:14.090Z to 2026-09-10T01:56:14.090Z Record version: sha256:69a951a060904a91a3b10f5bfc5029bbaa76bb13a6b3cf61ccdb7066c19ff99b Snapshot version: sha256:15aea8165dff9f5ae47d9484f8470588b13b307f56e1d50801bf4d85ec190e3f Effective as of: not established by retrieval timestamps.
