Lease Accounting Administration Under ASC 842

If you have multiple leases, on January 1, 2021, things are about to get complicated.

February 2020

The FASB guidance for accountant ASC 842 has drastically changed the way lease accounting is managed and reported. You may have heard the change affecting public companies was more disruptive than expected. The change in the leases you may be required to record on your balance sheet and the increase in the number of journal entries for each may be beyond the capabilities of your current accounting systems to comply and correctly format your reporting.

At Richey May, our Audit and Technology Teams collaborate to create a process backed by the best software systems for your business, so you’re prepared for ASC 842. Contact us today to get started with our consultation + implementation approach.
