Scope considerations Capitalization policies Companies can use a reasonable capitalization threshold when applying the recognition guidance under ASC 842 Do not default to existing PP&E capitalization thresholds Existing threshold does not incorporate: Effect of additional asset base Liability recognition Reasonable approaches include: Capitalization threshold set as the lesser of: Capitalization threshold for PP&E, inclusive of ROU assets Recognition threshold for liabilities, inclusive of lease liabilities Recognize all lease liabilities, but, subject to threshold, expense amounts associated with the ROU asset Choose one approach, apply consistently, and consider disclosures Basis for conclusions Paragraph BC122: Entities will likely be able to adopt reasonable capitalization thresholds below which lease assets and lease liabilities are not recognized Copyright 2017 Deloitte Development LLC. All rights reserved. FAQs about the New FASB Leases Standard: You re Not Alone 7
Capitalization policies Example Key facts Lease of a machine Lease term: 5 years ROU asset = $3,260 Lease liability = $3,260 Lessee considers the following to identify a threshold for its leases Gross balances of its ROU assets ($3,260) and lease liabilities ($3,260) Disclosures that would be omitted if certain leases were not recognized Internal controls needed to apply and monitor the threshold Materiality considerations in SAB Topic 1.M Lesser of approach Threshold for PP&E, including ROU assets = $3,500 Threshold for liabilities, including lease liabilities = $3,000 ROU asset and lease liability ($3,260) > recognition threshold for liabilities ($3,000, the lower of the two) Lessee should recognize the ROU asset and lease liability Recognize all liabilities approach Threshold for PP&E, including ROU assets = $3,500 ROU asset ($3,260) < capitalization threshold for PP&E ($3,500) Lessee should expense amounts associated with the ROU asset Lessee should recognize the lease liability Copyright 2017 Deloitte Development LLC.

Question 2: What is Lessor Y s consideration in the contract? Copyright 2017 Deloitte Development LLC. All rights reserved. FAQs about the New FASB Leases Standard: You re Not Alone 12
Allocating consideration in the contract Lessor example (cont.) Answer 1: Two 1. Lease component, for the right to use the building 2.

Answer 2: $35,000 Lessor Y allocates $35,000 on the basis of standalone selling price ( SASP ) for two components. Assume that the SASP for rent, excluding property taxes and insurance, is $21,500. Further, assume that the standalone selling price for CAM is $7,650. Component SASP % of Total SASP Allocation Rent, excluding taxes and insurance $21,500 73.8% 73.8%*$35,000 = $25,830 Maintenance service $7,650 26.2% 26.2%*$35,000 = $9,170 Total $29,150 100.0% $35,000 Copyright 2017 Deloitte Development LLC.
