Leases [Abstract] |
Leases of Lessor Disclosure [Text Block] | 4. Leases The Company must make estimates as to the collectability of its accrued rent and accounts receivable related to lease revenue. Management analyzes accrued rent and accounts receivable by considering tenant creditworthiness, current economic trends, including the impact of COVID-19 on tenants’ businesses, and changes in tenants’ payment patterns when evaluating the collectability of the tenant’s receivable balance, including the accrued rent receivable, on a lease-by-lease basis. As a result of this analysis, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company wrote off approximately $35.9 million and $37.4 million, respectively, related to accrued rent balances and approximately $18.0 million and $18.9 million, respectively, related to accounts receivable balances. The write-offs were for tenants, primarily in the retail sector, that either terminated their leases or that the Company considered their accrued rent and/or accounts receivable balances no longer probable of collection. In April 2020, the FASB staff issued a question and answer document (“Lease Modification Q & A”) related to the application of lease accounting guidance for lease concessions, in accordance with ASC 842, as a result of COVID-19. Under existing lease guidance, the Company would have to determine, on a lease-by-lease basis, if a lease concession was the result of a new arrangement reached with the tenant (treated within the lease modification accounting framework) or if a lease concession was under the enforceable rights and obligations within the existing lease agreement (precluded from applying the lease modification accounting framework). The Lease Modification Q & A allows the Company, if certain criteria have been met, to assume that a lease concession was included within the enforceable rights and obligations of the existing lease agreement and instead elect to either apply the lease modification accounting framework or not, with such election applied consistently to leases with similar characteristics and similar circumstances. The Company did not utilize the guidance provided in the Lease Modification Q & A and instead elected to continue to account for the COVID-19 lease concessions on a lease-by-lease basis in accordance with the existing lease modification accounting framework. The following table summarizes the components of lease revenue recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 included within the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations (in thousands):
