Video Overview

A finance lease is an agreement whereby the lessee purchases the asset from the lessor in terms of a finance lease that stipulates a set deposit, annual repayments and an interest rate to be charged. The ownership of the asset passes to the lessee at the commencement of the lease therefore the lessee must record the asset as such in his books. An operating lease is a lease whereby the ownership of the asset does not pass to the lessee. The asset is still disclosed in the lessor’s books. In the books of the lessee, the lease payments are shown as an expense. In this tutorial we will discuss the treatment of finance leases in the books of the lessor.
