Although intended to increase transparency of an entity’s leasing activities, FASB’s new Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 842 can still leave expenses that can generate a significant drag on the income statement out of view. Implementation of ASC 842 offers healthcare organizations an opportunity to evaluate the financial performance of equipment leases and gain a better understanding of their exposure to costs that the new standard does not capture on the balance sheet.
Watch our on-demand webinar to understand more about the following:
- Describe expenses that may remain off balance sheet following implementation of ASC 842
- Define a process to inventory existing leases, evaluate their financial performance, assess equipment lease contract risk, and ensure that future leases contain language to protect the lessee’s best interests
- Discuss implications of this review for decisions regarding the obtaining and financing of equipment and other assets
