Manage your portfolio with our telecommunications lease management software

In our experience, telecommunications lease portfolios are large and complex, consisting of leases, licences, easements, and resource consents across various assets, properties and sites. Lease agreements for assets like cell towers, fibre optic cables, satellite transponders, electrical junctions, and signal amplifiers can be particularly complex. Without a telecommunications lease management software solution, this can be even more challenging.

It’s imperative to manage your portfolios as closely as possible so you can make informed business decisions. Nomos One’s lease management and lease accounting software enables you to store agreements in one central location, empowering you to create accurate, insightful reports on your fleet, property and asset portfolios.

FAQs

What is lease accounting?

Lease accounting is the recognition of the transactions and balances associated with lease contracts and events for a business’ financial reporting. Both lessors and lessees are required to account for lease transactions, though each in different ways. With the introduction of IFRS 16 (AASB 16), lessees are required to recognise a lease liability and a right-of-use asset, while little has changed for lessors, who continue to differentiate between operating and finance leases.

What is lease accounting software?

Lease accounting software is a tool that empowers enterprises to manage their lease portfolio more effectively. Lease accounting software is designed to centralise information and effectively automate previously manual administrative tasks. Lease accounting software assists businesses in managing their lease and accounting regulations.

The software eliminates the requirement for paper trails, and most quality software will set reminders for the business’ upcoming financial milestones to ensure that critical dates are never overlooked.

What is IFRS 16?

Under IFRS 16, telecommunications businesses are required to recognise a lease liability for the future expected lease payments as well as a corresponding asset that represents their right to use the leased asset.

The lease liability is based on the present value of the future fixed and in substance fixed lease payments. The liability is an amortising liability whereby interest is accrued and expensed over the life of the lease.

The right-of-use asset is equal to the lease liability at the beginning of the lease liability calculations (subject to any prepayments, initial direct costs incurred, and estimated restoration obligations) and is depreciated systematically over its useful life.

Who needs lease accounting software?

Essentially, lease accounting software is designed to meet the needs of finance teams, accountants, auditors and property managers.

Lease accounting software solutions may be necessary for anyone who has to manage leasing activities, the financial impacts of leasing, and comply with lease accounting standards. This includes property investors, tenants, lessors, real estate agents, small business owners and accountants.

Both tenants and the lessor can utilise lease accounting software to manage all types of real estate assets. Quality, reliable and advanced lease accounting software has become crucial in recent times for both lessees and lessors to assist towards compliance with ever-evolving lease-specific accounting and depreciation standards.
