Home » CMA Glossary Term » Financial Statements and Reporting » Inception of the Lease

Inception of the Lease, also known as lease inception, refers to the date on which the lease agreement is signed and the terms are agreed upon by both parties. This date is crucial as it determines the classification and accounting treatment of the lease under applicable accounting standards. Lease inception marks the beginning of the lease term and sets the stage for subsequent financial reporting and compliance.
