Imputed interest in a capital lease is accounted for by recognizing the lease obligation as a liability on the balance sheet and recording the right-of-use asset. The lease liability is measured at the present value of future lease payments, discounted using the implicit interest rate of the lease or the lessee's incremental borrowing rate. Over the lease term, the imputed interest is recognized as an expense in the income statement, typically using the effective interest method, which allocates interest expense over the lease term based on the declining balance of the liability. This ensures that the financial statements reflect the cost of financing the leased asset accurately.
A single liability refers to a specific obligation or debt that one party owes to another, typically arising from a contractual agreement or legal obligation. It represents a singular point of responsibility, such as a loan, a lease, or a lawsuit. In financial terms, it indicates a clear and distinct obligation that must be settled, often documented in financial statements as a line item. Understanding single liabilities is crucial for assessing an individual's or an organization's financial health and risk exposure.
Non-current liability, all provisions are non current.
At the inception of a capital lease, the lessee recognizes an asset and a corresponding liability on their balance sheet, both recorded at the present value of the lease payments. Over the course of the lease year, the lessee depreciates the leased asset and records interest expense on the lease liability. The depreciation expense is typically calculated on a straight-line basis or in accordance with the asset's useful life, while the interest expense is determined based on the outstanding liability. Lease payments made during the year reduce the principal amount of the liability.
