The best indicator of true expertise? It’s often when something complicated is brought back down to earth. ASC 842/IFRS 16 compliance is complicated, to say the least. You need a resource that not only makes it simple, but also puts valuable information at your disposal.
Quarem has all of the staples you need to get compliant and maintain the standards. Let’s do a brief flyover of both of these complicated standards and then show you how Quarem can help.
ASC 842 Compliance
According to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, the FASB released ASC 842 and other account standard updates “to increase transparency and comparability among
organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet
and disclosing key information about leasing transactions.”
Basically, the core concept behind ASC 842 is to better recognize lease assets and liabilities. Total accounting transparency is the goal and it’s important for organizations to have a complete understanding of their leasing costs and how they are funded.
IFRS 16 Compliance
According to the International Financial Reporting Standards Foundation, “the objective of IFRS 16 is to report information that (a) faithfully represents lease transactions and (b) provides a basis for users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. To meet that objective, a lessee should recognise assets and liabilities arising from a lease.”
IFRS compliance goes hand in hand with FASB compliance. With these standards, you need to be aware of things like whether an agreement is a lease or not, how the lease is classified (operating or finance) and whether you are the lessor or the lessee. Similar to ASC 842, IFRS 16 standards have the goal of recognizing assets and liabilities.
