What Lease is ?
A lease transaction is a commercial arrangement whereby an equipment owner or manufacturer conveys to the equipment user the right to use the equipment in return for a rental. In other words, lease is a contract between the owner of an asset (the lessor) and its user (the lessee) for the right to use the asset during a specified period in return for a mutually agreed periodic payment (the lease rentals).

Financial lease
Long term non cancellable lease contracts are known as financial leases. The essential point of financial lease agreement is that it contains a condition where the lessor agrees to transfer the title for the asset at the end of the lease period at a nominal cost. Under this lease, the lessor recovers 90% of the fare value of the asset as lease rentals and the lease period is 75% of the economic life of the asset.

Operating Lease
This lease agreement gives to the lessee only a limited right to use the asset. Mines, computers, hardwares, trucks and automobiles are found suitable for operating lease because the rate of obsolence is very high in these kind of assets.

Under this, the owner of an asset sells the asset to a party (the buyer), who in turn leases back the same asset to the owner in consideration of lease rentals. The lessee can satify himself completely regarding the quality of the asset and after possession of the asset convert the sale into a lease agreement.

Leveraged Leasing
Under leveraged leasing arrangement, a third party is involved beside lessor and lessee. The lessor borrows a part of the purchase cost (say 80%) of the asset from the third party i.e. lender and the asset so purchased is held as security against the loan. The lender is paid off from the lease rentals directly by the lessee and the surplus after meeting the claims of the lender goes to the lessor. The lessor, the owner of the asset is entitled to depreciaton allowance associated with the asset.
