Lease Information

Field or Control

Description

Lease ID and Description

Select from the available lease IDs assign a new ID for this business unit and add a description of the lease. Description is required only if a Lease ID has been assigned.

Supplier ID and Supplier Contact

Select the Supplier ID from the list of available suppliers for this asset and enter contact information. Supplier ID is required if Lease ID is assigned.

Supplier Location and Ship To

Enter the supplier location and ship to location from the available values. These fields are enabled only when a supplier ID is entered.

Responsibility

Enter the name of the person who is responsible for this leased asset. Required if Lease ID is entered.

Acceptance Date

Indicates the date that the lease contract is accepted (signed and returned to the lessor). If you complete the Interim Rent (Monthly) field in the Lease Term group box, you must enter an acceptance date that is earlier than the commencement date of the lease. Interim rent starts on the acceptance date and ends on the commencement date. You enter the amount of the interim rent in the Interim Rent (Monthly) field.

Receipt Date

Enter the date the leased asset is received. This is an information-only date field for reporting purposes.

Lease End Date

Enter the date the leased asset is received. Lease End Date becomes required when a Lease ID is entered. This date is used for the Lease End Date report.

Display Alert Days

Enter the number of days in advance to receive the Lease End Date pagelet based on the Lease End Date. This field appears only if PeopleSoft IT Asset Management (ITAM) is installed.

Commence Date and Expiration Date

These fields represent the first and last lease payment date (regardless of interim rent), and appear only after you save the page.

Inception Date

This field appears when viewing this page in Update/Display mode. The date that is displayed is the date of the original transaction.

Additional Lease Information

Click this link to access the Lease administration component.

Note: If Lease Administration is installed, users can see Clauses, Options and Critical dates, Contacts along with Notes and Attachments and Supplemental Data pages on the lease component. Else, only the Notes and Attachments, and Supplemental Data pages are displayed on the lease component.

Comment

Enter any comments to be noted for this leased asset.

Note: If LEASE is entered and PeopleSoft ITAM is installed then Description, Lease End Date, Vendor Id and Responsibility are required fields.

Lease Term

Field or Control

Description

Lease Term

Enter the number of periods in this lease.

Estimated Life

The number of periods that you entered in Lease Term field appears by default. You can change this value.

Interest Rate (%) (interest rate percentage)

Enter the approximate percentage of profit the lessor gains by leasing the asset to you. This number must be an annual interest rate percentage in whole numbers.

Borrowing Rate (%)

Enter the interest rate that you would have incurred at the inception of the lease if you had borrowed the necessary funds to purchase the leased asset. This number must be an annual interest rate percentage in whole numbers.

Payment Schedule ID

If you want the system to define a lease payment schedule, enter a payment schedule ID. Capital leases must have a payment schedule ID. The values that you can select are set up on the Payment Schedule page when you specify the payment frequency and number of periods.

Fair Value

Enter the fair value. The system uses the fair value to verify the lease type. It also records this value on the AM_FMV table to use in the asset revaluation process. The system calculates the capitalized lease amount using the lesser of the Present Value Lease Payments and Fair Value field values.

If the present value of the lease payments is less than the fair value, the capitalized lease amount equals the present value of the minimum lease payment (MLP).

If the fair value is less than the present value of lease payments, the capitalized lease amount equals the fair value.

You might want to change the interest rate so that the net present value equals the fair value.

If you do not enter a fair value, the capitalized lease amount equals the present value of the MLP.

FV Template ID (fair value template ID)

Select a fair value template, which includes the valuation method, level and premise. If left blank, the fair value is created but the additional valuation information is not provided.

See Fair Value Templates Page.

FV Group ID (fair value group ID)

This field is active only when the selected FV Template ID has a valuation premise of In Use. The default value is supplied from the selected FV Template ID; however, you can override it and select another FV Group ID.

See Fair Value Groups Page.

Guar. Residual Value (guaranteed residual value)

Calculates depreciation based on the amount of the residual value of the leased asset that is guaranteed by the lessee to the lessor and considered as part of the minimum lease payments.

Guaranteed Residual Percent

Calculates depreciation based on the percent of the residual value of the leased asset that is guaranteed by the lessee to the lessor and considered as part of the minimum lease payments.

Field or Control

Description

BPO (bargain purchase option)

Select if this lease includes a bargain purchase option, which represents a payment by the lessee to the lessor at the end of the lease term, allowing the lessee to obtain title to the leased property.

BRO (bargain renewal option)

Select if this lease includes a bargain renewal option, which requires a payment if the lease agreement grants the lessee the right to renew or extend the lease. If the agreement specifies that the lease must be renewed or extended, a penalty might be required for failure to renew.

Transfer Ownership end lease

Check if there is an ownership transfer of the asset at the end of the lease period.

Step lease

Select if the lease is a step lease. A step lease features variable payment amounts and/or variable timing over the term of the lease.

Field or Control

Description

Minimum Rental Payment (MRP)

Enter the minimum rental payment. This field is not required for step leases.

Note: You must either enter a minimum rental payment here or complete the cost information on the Cost page. Otherwise, the system cannot calculate the lease payment schedule.

Minimum Lease Payments (MLP)

Display a minimum lease payment.

  • If there is no bargain purchase option (and you entered a bargain renewal option instead):

    MLP = (MRP × Lease Term ÷ 12 periods per year × number of payments per year) + Guaranteed Residual + BRO.

  • If there is a bargain purchase option:

    MLP = (MRP × Lease Term ÷ 12 periods per year × number of payments per year) + BPO.

Present Value Lease Payments

Displays the present value of the lease payments for a step lease.

The system uses two formulas to determine the present value of the total payment for a step lease.

  • For the first payment in the schedule, the formula looks at the present value of an ordinary annuity for a series of payments of any amount:

    P1 = Pymt × ([ 1 – (1 + Intr) ^ -npymt ] ÷ (intr))

    where:

    P1 = Present value of an ordinary annuity.

    Pymt = Periodic payment amount.

    Intr = Periodic interest rate.

    npymt = Number of payments.

  • For payments that are made after the first payment, the formula looks at the present value of a single future amount:

    P2 = Single_Future_Pymt × (1 ÷ (1 + intr) ^ nper)

    where:

    P2 = Present value of a single future amount.

    Single_Future_Pymt = Future amount.

    intr = Periodic interest rate.

    nper = Number of periods.

The example illustrates the calculations using an interest rate of 7.2 percent.

PV1 equals Present value of the first payment in the schedule:

400 USD × ([ 1 - (1 + 0.01) ^ -6 ] ÷ (0.01) ) = 2,350.40 USD

PV2 equals Present value of the second payment in the schedule:

[350 USD × ([ 1 - (1 + 0.01) ^ -18 ] / (0.01) )] × (1 ÷ 1.01 ^ 6) = 5,744.88 USD

Present value of the total cash flow equals: 2,350.40 + 5,744.88 = 8,095.28 USD

Note: The lease term during the renewal period is considered part of the overall lease term.

Field or Control

Description

Capitalized Lease Amount

Enter the cost. The system uses the following method to calculate lease payments:

Capitalized Lease Amount - Prior Obligation Reduction = Residual Capitalized Lease Amount

Residual Lease Amount × (Annual Implicit Interest Rate / Number of Periods per Year) = Interest Expense per Period

Interest Expense per Payment + Obligation Reduction = MRP

For example, this table illustrates a full payment schedule for a simple capital leased asset with a capitalized amount of 10,500 USD, an interest rate of 7 percent, a monthly payment of 908.53 USD, and 12 periods per year:

Field or Control

Description

Interim Rent (Monthly)

Enter the amount of monthly interim rent for a capital or operating lease. Interim rent is common for quarterly leases. Interim rent starts on the acceptance date and ends on the commencement date of the lease. Once the lease officially begins, the normal rental payment amount is tracked by the lease payment schedule.

PeopleSoft Asset Management prorates the first month of interim rent. You can see interim rent payments on the Express Add - Payment Schedule page (ASSET_LEASE_03).

Select Capitalize Interim Rent if you want to include these interim payments as part of your asset cost.

Note: You must post journal entries for interim rent each month by running the Depreciation Close process (AM_DPCLOSE).

Capitalize Interim Rent

Select this check box to capitalize. When selected, the interim rent is added to the cost of the leased asset.

Calculate

Click to have the system calculate the lease payment schedule.

Before the system can calculate the lease payment schedule, you must have:

  • Defined a payment schedule.

  • Entered (for leases other than step leases) the minimum rental payment on this page or entered cost information on the Express Add - Cost page.

  • For step leases, entered payment information on the Express Add - Step Lease Payment page.

    You can see the results of the calculation on the Express Add - Payment Schedule page.

Lease Payment Type

Select a payment type: Advance or Arrears. You can use either type for both capital leases and operating leases. More details on these two payment types are provided in this table:

Calculation

Advance Payment Type

Arrears Payment Type

Present Value Factor

Total payment terms for present value factor excludes the term of the advance (or first) payment.

Total payment terms for present value factor equal the total terms of the lease.

Present Value of Minimum Lease Payments

Equals: (Present Value Factor × Periodic Payment Amount) + Advance payment.

Equals: Present Value Factor × Periodic Payment Amount.

Amortization Schedule

Period interest expense equals: Capitalized Amount × the period interest rate.

The Capitalized Amount used for the first period of the payment excludes the advance payment amount.

Period interest expense equals: Capitalized Amount × the period interest rate.

Field or Control

Description

Advance

Select if an asset is leased with the first payment that is due before the lease begins. For advance payments, the interest expense is not calculated.

If the present value is calculated on a lease with 12 monthly payments of 100.00 USD and an interest rate of seven percent, then the calculated present value factor is 10.6254.

Calculated present value = 100 USD + 10.6254 × 100 = 1,162.54 USD

Arrears

An arrears payment type means that an asset is leased with the payment due at the end of the period. This is the lease payment type by default. If the present value is calculated on a lease with 12 monthly payments of 100.00 USD and an interest rate of seven percent, then the calculated present value factor is 11.5571.

Calculated present value = 11.5571 × 100 = 1,155.71 USD

Lease Type

When you select the lease type, you can verify that you have selected the correct lease type for a country. If you do not select either the Capital or the Operating options, the system selects the lease type for you. The system can verify the lease types for the U.S., Canada, Germany, and Australia. Canada uses the same criteria as the U.S. for classifying capital and operating leases. Germany uses a higher threshold for the lease term (90 percent instead of 75 percent).

Note: You cannot change a lease type from capital to operating or from operating to capital. If you must change the lease type, you must first retire the leased asset and then reenter the lease with the appropriate lease type.

Field or Control

Description

Capital

Select if the lease is a capital lease.

According to FAS13, a capital lease must meet one of the following criteria:

  • There is an ownership transfer at the end of the lease.

  • The lease contains a bargain purchase option (BPO).

  • The lease term is 75 percent or more of the asset life.

    In Germany, the lease term is 90 percent of the leased asset's economic life.

  • The present value of the minimum lease payment is 90 percent or more of the fair value of the asset.

Field or Control

Description

Operating

Select if the lease is an operating lease.

Verify

Click this button to verify if the lease meets the criteria for a capital lease or an operating lease. If the lease type meets the criteria, the system displays a message confirming that the criteria for FAS13 has been met. If you do not select the Capital or Operating option before clicking the Verify button, the system looks at the information that you have entered on this page about the lease, including the country code, and selects the lease type for that country.

Note: This verification test is disabled for leased assets that use an Indian business unit; designation of capital or operating leases is manual for assets in India.
