15. Right of Use Asset and Lease Liability

The Company adopted a new lease standard and recognized $360,361 of lease liability on April 1, 2019. The lease liability was measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments of $360,361 as of April 1, 2019, discounted using an incremental borrowing rate of that date of 6%. The Company recorded a right of use asset of the same amount which relates to its long-term office lease. Depreciation of the right of use asset is calculated using the straight-line method over the remaining lease term.

During the year ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized interest expense on the lease liability of $236,600 which was recorded within finance expense.
