Existing operating leases with terms extending beyond 12 months will be included on the balance sheet effective January 1, 2022, the date of required adoption.

The lease must contain a bargain purchase option for a price less than the market value of an asset. the lessee must gain ownership at the end of the lease period. the present value of lease payments must be greater than 90% of the asset's market value.
