LeaseQuery – Lease Accounting Software

The new regulations for lease accounting were released in 2006 by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The new standards, known as FASB Topic 842 and IFRS 16 call for sweeping changes to how companies account for their leases. For most public companies, and those that report under the international standard the effective date of the new standards was January 2019; for most private companies the effective date is January 2021.

Complying with the new regulations requires in-depth understanding of the new standards, as well as software that enables accuracy and efficiency. Many companies are choosing to leverage consultants to ensure their compliance. LBMC has partnered with LeaseQuery, a leading provider of lease accounting software, to offer LBMC’s clients a comprehensive lease accounting solution to supplement their lease accounting expertise with a software tool that is built for compliance.
