The accounting for leases is changing significantly. Soon, nearly all leases will need to be disclosed as a liability on the balance sheet. Although the biggest impact will be on large entities, this will affect the financial statements of small and mid-size entities as well.

Join us for a 1-hour live webinar discussing Implementing the Lease Accounting Standard.

Speaker: Adam Kellerhals

Adam Kellerhals, CPA is a Principal in the audit department at Smith Schafer. He joined the firm in 2007 after receiving a Bachelor of Arts in Accounting and Management from Luther College. Mr. Kellerhals uses his knowledge and expertise to improve processes and helps owners and stakeholders move forward with confidence in their financials.

“The goal is to work with clients throughout the year, not just frantically at year-end when a due date is looming. I want to help improve internal client processes that help them better track financial progress throughout the year and help them be better prepared for year-end.”

• Applying the new financial accounting concepts of leases.
• Accounting rules as they apply to leases.
• Disclosures and transition rules.
• Sample financial statement presentation and disclosures.
