Exposure Draft Accounting
December 21, 2010
Under the proposed new rules, there are no bright lines. Lessors can classify a lease transaction as either a Performance Obligation or a Partial Derecognition lease. These two products perform very differently on the balance sheet, in a way similar to the different performance of Operating leases and Direct Finance leases. Keep in mind also that the huge bulk of equipment finance transactions are smaller "cookie-cutter" deals — the amount of profit associated with them precludes the possibility of having an accountant make a classification ruling on each deal individually. The classification process must be automated. IT Systems must be able to accommodate classification rules automatically.
