Assets leased under ______ leases generally have a usable life longer than the term of the lease.
A)financial
B)operating
C)capital
D)direct
Answer : Option B OPERATING LEASE
In Operating lease, the lease term is significantly lesser than the usable life of the equipment. It is for a shorter period compared to capital lease or financial lease. Thus the assets leased under Operating leases generally have a usable life longer than the term of the lease.
In Financial lease, the ownership is transferred to the lessee before the lease expires. It is long term in nature.
Capital lease is a type of lease in which the lessor agrees to transfer the ownership rights to the lessee after the completion of the lease term. These leases are long term and non cancellable in nature.
In Direct lease, the lessee and lessor are two different entities. All equipment leases fall under this category. Direct lease can be of two party agreement or three party agreement
