Line 1: Line 1:
A finance lease usually involves the lessee (user of the asset) paying - over the life of the lease - the full cost of the asset plus a return on the finance effectively provided by the lessor.
The sale of a used - possibly obsolete - physical product, often by a retail customer.
 
The lessee-user effectively retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.
However, the lessee does not obtain legal title to the leased asset.


Under IAS 17 and SSAP 21, finance leases have to be accounted for 'on balance sheet' by the user of the asset.
The sale may be a re-sale to the original supplier, and often anticipates the recovery of any re-usable components and the safe disposal of any waste.
This means that the liability to pay (the capital element of) the future lease instalments is recognised and disclosed on the face of the balance sheet.
 
Also known as a ''capital lease'', especially in the US.
