17.C If a lease is a long-term lease, then a right-of-use asset account for the lease asset is
debited and a lease liability is credited at an amount equal to the present value of all
future lease payments. Only short-term leases do not result in an asset and liability
being recorded.
18.C A finance lease is a long-term lease in which the lessor transfers substantially all the
risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee—see one or more of five criteria that must
be met. An operating lease is a long-term lease that does not meet any of the five criteria
for a finance lease. In both cases, the lessee records the leased item as its own right-of–
use asset along with a lease liability at the start of the lease term—the amount recorded
equals the present value of all lease payments. The difference with these methods is how
they compute amortization expense on the right-of-use asset.
