EBITDA impact

+£60,000

Lease payments move below the EBITDA line. Under FRS 102, rent is replaced by depreciation (below EBIT) and interest — both excluded from EBITDA.

Why Year 1 P&L is higher

Under FRS 102, your lease works like a mortgage. At the start, most of each payment is interest on the large opening liability. Over time, interest reduces and the total charge falls below the old rent cost.

Methodology and assumptions

  • Lease liabilities calculated as the present value of future annual payments, discounted at the incremental borrowing rate entered, using annual compounding.
  • ROU asset set equal to the opening lease liability (no initial direct costs, prepayments, or restoration provisions included).
  • ROU asset depreciated on a straight-line basis over the remaining lease term.
  • Lease liability unwound using the effective interest method.
  • This tool reflects a modified retrospective transition approach. Full retrospective calculations may differ.
  • Results are indicative estimates only. For accurate calculations with documented judgements, use AuditLease.
