A lease is classified as a finance lease by a lessee and as a sales-type lease by a lessor if ownership of the underlying asset transfers to the lessee by the end of the lease term. This criterion is also met if the lessee is required to pay a nominal fee for the legal transfer of ownership.

To determine the lease term, first, start with the non-cancelable period of the lease. Then, add any renewal option periods for renewals the lessee is reasonably certain of exercising. Third, add any periods covered by a termination option if the lessee is reasonably certain it will NOT exercise that option.

Divide the value of the property that will be used (in this example, $4,500) by the number of monthly lease payments that will be made. In the case of a three year lease you'll have 36 payments. The monthly payment (before interest) will be $125.

Leases are classified currently under IAS 17, Leases, as finance or operating leases at inception, depending on whether substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership transfer to the lessee. Under a finance lease, the lessee has substantially all of the risks and reward of ownership.
