Impact of Accounting for Operating Leases as Capital Leases
Virtually all firms have some amount of commitment under operating leases. The change in debt ratios for some firms is relatively minor, as is the case for PepsiCo. For other firms, particularly airlines and retail stores, the effect can be significant. Even for firms for which the effect is relatively small, adding the effect of capitalizing operating leases to the effect of other off-balance-sheet obligations can result in a combined material effect. Thus, the ana-lyst should examine the effect of leases when assessing the risk and accounting quality of a firm's financial statements. The analyst should also consider the effects of off-balance-sheet leases when determining capital structure weights and debt costs for the weighted average cost of capital calculations used in enterprise valuation.
