 on the Property Portfolio in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 842, Leases ("ASC 842"). NNN's real estate is typically leased to tenants under triple-net leases, whereby the tenant is responsible for all operating expenses relating to the Property, including utilities, real estate taxes and assessments, property and liability insurance, maintenance, repairs and capital expenditures. The leases are accounted for using either the operating or the direct financing method. Such methods are described below:Operating method – Properties with leases accounted for using the operating method are recorded at the cost of the real estate and depreciated on the straight-line method over their estimated remaining useful lives, which generally range from 20 to 40 years for buildings and improvements and 15 years for land improvements. Leasehold interests are amortized on the straight-line method over the terms of their respective leases. Revenue is recognized as rentals are earned and expenses (including depreciation) are charged to operations as incurred. When scheduled rentals vary during the lease term, income is recognized on a straight-line basis so as to produce a constant periodic rent over the term of the lease. Accrued rental income is the aggregate difference between the scheduled rents which vary during the lease term and the income recognized on a straight-line basis.Direct financing method – Properties with leases accounted for using the direct financing method are recorded at their net investment (which at the inception of the lease generally represents the cost of the Property). Unearned income is deferred and amortized into income over the lease terms so as to produce a constant periodic rate of return on NNN's net investment in the leases.NNN adopted certain practical expedients in ASC 842 and does not separate the non-lease components from the lease components when the timing and patterns of transfer for the lease and non-lease components are the same and the lease is classified as an operating lease. As a result, all income earned pursuant to tenant leases are reflected as one-line, rental income, in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. In addition, NNN records right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities as lessee under operating leases in accordance with ASC 842.Collectability. In accordance with ASC 842, NNN reviews the collectability of its lease payments on an ongoing basis. NNN considers collectability indicators when analyzing accounts receivable (and accrued rent), historical bad debt levels, tenant credit-worthiness and current economic trends, all of which assists in evaluating the probability of outstanding and future rental income collections and the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts.
