Agency Fiscal Year-End USAS Adjustments and AFR Checklist
Step 8 – Notes to the Financial Statements
Note 8 – Leases
- Present value of capital leases ties to capital lease obligation amount on balance sheet/statement of net position. Future minimum lease payments are presented for five fiscal years and five-year increments thereafter for both principal and interest amounts.
- Debt service information is submitted through the LNSS web application in the Capital Lease Debt Service left navigation menus.
- Provide a listing of capital assets under lease by major assets class and accumulated depreciation in total, for any fund type with a capital lease obligation greater than zero.
- For operating lease obligations, disclose:
- General leasing arrangements
- Current year costs reported in the financial statements for rents paid or due under operating leases
- Minimum future noncancelable sublease rentals
- Minimum future lease payments for noncancelable leases of more than one year for each of the next five fiscal years and five-year increments thereafter
- Total contingent rental payments for the fiscal year
- For operating lease rentals, disclose:
- General leasing arrangements
- Cost and carrying amount of leased assets by major assets class and accumulated depreciation in total
- Minimum future lease rentals for noncancelable leases of more than one year for each of the next five fiscal years and thereafter in five-year increments
- Total contingent rentals for the fiscal year
- Total current year income
- Submit a copy of the agency’s applicable note from its published AFR through the LNSS web application. The required format is a Microsoft Word document (latest version: docx) with header information that includes: agency name/number and note number/name. If any note contains a table, include the table in the Word document — rather than as a separate Excel document or other database application file. Do not submit a note to indicate “not applicable.”
