Asc842LeaseScope

Executive summary Under FASB ASC Topic 842, every audited U.S. company must put nearly all of its leases — real estate, equipment, vehicles, and leases embedded in service contracts — onto the balance sheet as right-of-use (ROU) assets and lease liabilities, and re-measure them every time a lease is modified, renewed, or a renewal option becomes "reasonably certain" Verified [3] [21] . The standard has been live for public companies since fiscal 2019 and private companies since fiscal 2022, yet years later finance teams still wrestle with incomplete lease populations, inconsistent discount rates, and spreadsheet errors that compound every quarter Verified [10] [13] . The pain is no longer theoretical.

Cost of the gap

The painful problem ASC 842 didn't end at go-live; it created a permanent, error-prone maintenance burden that most mid-market teams are under-resourced to carry.

Outcome

The outcome we sell We do not sell software, a data file, or hours. We sell a signed, audit-defensible lease accounting outcome and the ongoing service that keeps it true: A complete, accuracy-guaranteed lease database (~150 fields per lease incl. options, escalations, CAM, co-tenancy, purchase options), reconciled to AP and the GL.

Service boundary

Automation prepares. A qualified human releases.

Asc842LeaseScope is an operational documentation and processing service operated by Your Deputy, Obuke LLC. It is not a law firm and does not provide legal, tax, medical, financial, or other licensed professional advice. Consumer and personal debt matters are not accepted. The client retains its licensed professionals and decision authority. Automation may organize and check records, but a qualified human must review and release every client deliverable.

  • Unsupported facts remain unresolved, never inferred into a client deliverable.
  • Jurisdiction-specific or licensed questions are routed to the client's professional.
  • Every correction retains the source, reviewer, version, and reason for change.

Questions

Know the limits before intake.

Is this legal or professional advice?

No. This is bounded operational documentation and processing support. Licensed judgment remains with the client and its professionals.

Does automation make the final decision?

No. It can organize records, run declared checks, and prepare an exception queue. A qualified human reviews and releases every deliverable.

Is a client portal or CRM already active?

This public site does not claim an active portal integration. Portal access is provisioned only after the relevant backend is configured and independently verified.

What happens when evidence conflicts?

The item is placed in an exception state with its sources and owner. It is not silently resolved or presented as verified.
