In the video explanation, the machinery is depreciated over 5 years (lease term). But the question mentions the lease type as finance lease, and the useful life is 6 years.
Shouldn't the asset then be depreciated over 6 years instead of 5 years as the ownership passes at the end of the lease term?

No reference in the scenario to ownership passing at the end of the lease.
