What is a lease?
A lease is a contract where one party (Lessor) allows another
(Lessee) the exclusive right to use and possess its equipment
for a specific period of time. The contract obligates the
Lessee to make periodic payments, or rentals, to the Lessor
for the use of the equipment. A lease utilized as a source
of financing is usually a long-term agreement that is non-canceled.
The Lessee is responsible for all peripheral costs associated
with the use and maintenance of the equipment, including
such things as taxes and insurance, during the term of the
lease. At the end of the lease term, the Lessee may have
the option to purchase the equipment based upon a predetermined
purchase option.
