• Finance Lease is for terms that approach the
economic life of the asset; the total payments
over the term of the lease are in total more
than the lessor’s initial cost of the leased
asset.
• It involves payments of rentals over an
obligatory non-cancellable lease period, which
is enough in total to amortise the capital
outlay of the lessor and leave some profit.
• In such leases, the lessor is only a financier
and is usually not interested in the assets.
Therefore, such leases are also called as ‘full
payout leases’ as they enable a lessor to
recover his investment in the lease and derive
a profit. Types of assets under such lease, are
railway wagons, ships, aircrafts, lands,
buildings, generating sets, heavy machinery
and others.
Situations lead to a lease being
classified as a finance lease are:
• A. The lease transfers ownership of the asset to
the lessee by the end of the lease tenure;
• B. The lease term is for a major part of the
economic life of the asset.
• C. At the inception of the lease, the present value
of the minimum lease payments amounts to atleast substantially all of the fair value of the
leased asset;
• D. The leased asset is of a specialized natures
such that lessee can use it without major
modifications being made.
Operating Lease
• Operating lease is for a term shorter than the
economic life of the asset; generally the
payment over the term of the lease is less
than the lessor’s initial cost of the leased
asset. In an operating lease, the lessor does
not transfer all the risks and rewards
incidental to the ownership of the asset and
the cost of the asset is not fully amortised
during the primary lease period
