Overview of an operating lease
A rental agreement where the residual value of the asset is set at the outset, based on the estimated use throughout the term. Rentals based on the depreciation of the asset throughout the term of the agreement. The lessor holds the liability for a predetermined value for a contract period, which means lower monthly rentals.
