NOTE 13 – LEASES

 

The Company has various lease agreements with terms up to 10 years, comprising leases of office space. Some leases include options to purchase, terminate or extend for one or more years. These options are included in the lease term when it is reasonably certain that the option will be exercised.

 

The assets and liabilities from operating and finance leases are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term using the Company’s secured incremental borrowing rates or implicit rates, when readily determinable. Short-term leases, which have an initial term of 12 months or less, are not recorded on the balance sheet.

 

The Company’s operating leases do not provide an implicit rate that can readily be determined. Therefore, we use a discount rate based on our incremental borrowing rate, which is determined using the interest rate of our long-term debt on the date of inception.

The Company’s weighted-average remaining lease term relating to its operating leases is 5.49 years, with a weighted-average discount rate of 6.74%.

 

The Company incurred lease expense for its operating leases of $210,463 and $260,664 which was included in “General and administrative expenses,” for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
