When the acquisition value differs from previous reporting

In order to have as smooth a transition as possible from previous reporting to the one you will subsequently produce through Leasify, it is important that the figures backwards match. In Leasify, the asset value/discounting of the leasing fees is calculated by the following factors.

  • Fee/rent
  • Payment periodicity
  • Initial discounts in different time periods
  • Index calculations of the rent and/or fixed annual calculations
  • Residual value (in case of financial leasing)
  • The marginal loan interest you specified

The discounting is done by calculating the present value of the interest, for example 5% marginal loan interest with monthly payment gives a periodic interest if: ((1+5%)^(1/12)) = 1.004074

Often, the above value can differ slightly from the periodic interest calculated in some Excel where the formula could be, for example: 5% / 12 = 1.004167

Therefore, the asset value may differ even though the same fees, periodicity and other settings are the same.

Measure: The numbers differ so little and the method used in Leasify is more accurate, so the recommendation is to make a small adjustment, which will facilitate handling in the future. But it is possible to set an exact asset value by entering a "price" and selecting "implicit interest" and asset value according to the "price in the contract", and get the exact value you calculated earlier. See below.
