1) Which of the following situations is the lease an operating lease?
i- The lessee records rentals payable as an expense
ii – The lessee records an asset, being the capitalised value of the rights in the asset, which is subject to depreciation, and a liability to make payments to the lessor
iii – The lessee allocates rentals paid between a capital element, which reduces the outstanding liability and interest expense on the liability
iv – The lessee does not record a physical asset
v – none of the above2) The lessor does not record a physical asset, but rather a debtor for rentals receivables.
