When a lease is classified as a finance lease from the lessee's perspective and a sales-type lease from the lessor's perspective, (1) the lessee records a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for the present value of the lease payments, and (2) the lessor records a lease receivable for the same amount and removes the asset from its books. The lessor recognizes interest revenue and the lessee recognizes interest expense at the effective rate times the outstanding balance. The lessee amortizes the right-of-use asset on a straight-line basis. For an operating lease, the two components interest and amortization, are shown as one lease expense in the income statement.
