The leases of retail stores typically run for an average useful life of 15 years, and leases of office space for three to five years. Some leases include an option to renew the lease for additional period at the end of the contract term. Some leases provide for additional rent payments that are based on changes in the National Consumer and Price Index, or sales that the Company makes at the leased store in the period. Variable lease payments based on sales Some leases of retail stores contain variable lease payments that are based on sales that the Company makes at the store. Variable rental payments in the Company do not represent a significant impact in profit and loss amounts for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company expects the relative proportions of fixed and variable lease payments to remain broadly consistent in future years. Extension options Some leases of office buildings, cellars and retail stores contain extension options exercisable by the Company up to one year before the end of the non-cancellable contract period. Where practicable, the Company seeks to include extension options in new leases to provide operational flexibility. The extension options held are exercisable only by FEMSA and not by the lessor, in other words, the lessee has the unilateral right to exercise the extension option. The Company assesses at lease commencement whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the extension options. FEMSA reassesses whether it is reasonably certain to exercise the options if there is a significant event or significant change in circumstances within its control. Except for some business units, FEMSA consider that the “reasonably certain” criteria is met when a new lease contract is signed by both, the Company and the lessor, which usually occurs within a short period of the expiration of the current lease term. Extension options on leases in the Company do not represent a significant impact on the right-of-use assets at December 31, 2019. 12.2 Other leases The Company leases vehicles, servers and equipment, with lease terms from three to five years. In some cases, the Company has options to purchase the assets at the end of the contract term. At the commencement date, the Company does not expect to exercise the purchase option. FEMSA also leases IT equipment and machinery with contract terms from one to three years. These leases are short-term and/or leases of low-value items. The Company has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for these types of leases.
