Journal Entries of Lease


Lease is the agreement between lessee and lessor. Lessor gives his asset to lessee for use. Lessee gives the money for using the asset of lessor. So, there are transactions which happen between the lessee and lessor. We can record all these transactions by writing journal entries. Both parties will record the journal entries.
Before learning all these journal entries, we have to understand the the kinds of lease because it affects the journal entries.


 1. Capital or Finance Lease 


When there is the agreement which fulfills the following condition, will be the capital or finance lease.

a) Lessor will transfer the ownership at the end of the term of lease.

b) Purchasing bargaining.

c) 75% or more of total life will be the lease life. If total life of asset will be 6 and lease agreement is of 5 years, then it is more than 75% life of total lease and acceptable as capital lease.

d) 90% or more of fair value of asset will be the present value of asset for lease.



2. Operating Lease 



Operating lease means the lease in which asset is not transferred. Just asset is used for the rent payment. After the end of lease, ownership will be in the hand of lessor. During the time, all the risk relating to the asset will be of lessor.

We also should understand the the following meaning clearly.

1. Payment or Rent Payment 

Payment is the amount which is given by lessee to lessor. In this, interest and principal amount.

2. Lease obligation or payable

It is the principal amount which a lessee will pay to lessor during the period of lease.

3. Interest 

Interest is the income for lessor. It is the gain on the lease.

    I received cash so I credit the bank account?? If I receive cash, I would debit the cash account to increase it and credit the receivable account to decrease the receivable? Am I missing something here?
