| LEASES |
LEASES Our operating leases are comprised primarily of facility leases and our finance leases are comprised primarily of vehicle and equipment leases. We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception and lease assets and liabilities are recognized upon commencement of the lease based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. Lease assets and liabilities are not recorded for leases with an initial term of one year or less. We generally use our incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases, unless an interest rate is implicitly stated in the lease agreement. The lease term will include options to extend the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option.
