COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

NOTE 11 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

The Company accounts for contingencies in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies. A liability is recorded when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If a loss is reasonable possible but not probable, or if the amount cannot be estimated, the nature of the contingency and an estimate of the possible loss, if determinable, is disclosed. Remote contingencies are generally not disclosed unless related to guarantee.

 

Lease Obligations

 

The Company leases property and equipment under operating leases, typically with terms greater than 12 months, and determine if an arrangement contains a lease at inception. In general, an arrangement contains a lease if there is an identified asset, and the Company has the right to direct the use of and obtain substantially all of the economic benefit from the use of the identified asset. The Company records an operating lease liability at the present value of lease payments over the lease term on the commencement date. The related right of use (‘ROU”) operating lease asset reflects rental escalation clauses, as well as renewal options and/or termination options. The exercise of lease renewal and/or termination options is at the Company’s discretion and is included in the determination of the lease term and lease payment obligations when it is deemed reasonably certain that the option will be exercised. When available, the Company uses the rate implicit in the lease to discount lease payments to present value; however, certain leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Therefore, the Company must estimate our incremental borrowing rate to discount the lease payments based on information available at lease commencement.

 

The Company classifies its leases as buildings, vehicles or computer and office equipment and do not separate lease and non-lease components of contracts for any of the aforementioned classifications. In accordance with applicable guidance, the Company does not record leases with terms that are less than one year on the consolidated balance sheets.

 

None of the lease agreements contain material restrictive covenants or residual value guarantees.
