  2. Types of Leases • The Basics • A lease is a contractual agreement between a lessee and lessor. • The lessor owns the asset and for a fee allows the lessee to use the asset.

  3. Operating Leases • Usually not fully amortized. • Usually require the lessor to maintain and insure the asset. • Lessee enjoys a cancellation option.

  4. Financial Leases The exact opposite of an operating lease. • Do not provide for maintenance or service by the lessor. • Financial leases are fully amortized. • The lessee usually has a right to renew the lease at expiry. • Generally, financial leases cannot be cancelled.

  5. Sale and Lease-Back • A particular type of financial lease. • Occurs when a company sells an asset it already owns to another firm and immediately leases it from them. • Two sets of cash flows occur: • The lessee receives cash today from the sale. • The lessee agrees to make periodic lease payments, thereby retaining the use of the asset.

  6. Leveraged Leases • A leveraged lease is another type of financial lease. • A three-sided arrangement between the lessee, the lessor, and lenders. • The lessor owns the asset and for a fee allows the lessee to use the asset. • The lessor borrows to partially finance the asset. • The lenders typically use a nonrecourse loan. This means that the lessor is not obligated to the lender in case of a default by the lessee.

  7. Lease Accounting • Leases are governed primarily by FASB 13 • Financial leases are essentially treated as debt financing • Present value of lease payments must be included on the balance sheet as a liability • Same amount shown on the asset as the “capitalized value of leased assets” • Operating leases are still “off-balance-sheet” and do not have any impact on the balance sheet itself

  8. Criteria for a Capital Lease • If one of the following criteria is met, then the lease is considered a capital lease and must be shown on the balance sheet • Lease transfers ownership by the end of the lease term • Lessee can purchase asset at below market price • Lease term is for 75 percent or more of the life of the asset • Present value of lease payments is at least 90 percent of the fair market value at the start of the lease

  9. Taxes • Lessee can deduct lease payments for income tax purposes • Must be used for business purposes and not to avoid taxes • Term of lease is less than 80 percent of the economic life of the asset • Should not include an option to acquire the asset at the end of the lease at a below market price • Lease payments should not start high and then drop dramatically • Must survive a profits test • Renewal options must be reasonable and consider fair market value at the time of the renewal

  11. Capital Lease • A lease must be capitalized if any one of the following is met: • The present value of the lease payments is at least 90 percent of the fair market value of the asset at the start of the lease. • The lease transfers ownership of the property to the lessee by the end of the term of the lease. • The lease term is 75 percent or more of the estimated economic life of the asset. • The lessee can buy the asset at a bargain price at expiry.

  12. The Cash Flows of Leasing Consider a firm, ClumZee Movers, that wishes to acquire a delivery truck. The truck is expected to reduce costs by RM4,500 per year. The truck costs RM25,000 and has a useful life of 5 years. If the firm buys the truck, they will depreciate it straight-line to zero. They can lease it for 5 years from Tiger Leasing with an annual lease payment of RM6,250.

  13. Cash Flows: Buy Year 0 Years 1-5 Cost of truck –RM25,000 After-tax savings 4,500×(1-.34) = RM2,970 Depreciation Tax Shield 5,000×(.34) = RM1,700 –RM25,000 RM4,670 Cash Flows: Lease Year 0 Years 1-5 Lease Payments –6,250×(1-.34) = – RM4,125 After-tax savings 4,500×(1-.34) = RM2,970 –RM1,155 • Cash Flows: Leasing Instead of Buying • Year 0 Years 1-5 • RM25,000 –RM1,155 – RM4,670 = –RM5,825 The Cash Flows of Leasing

  14. The Cash Flows of Leasing • Cash Flows: Leasing Instead of Buying Year 0 Years 1-5 RM25,000 –RM1,155 – RM4,670 = –RM5,825 • Cash Flows: Buying Instead of Leasing Year 0 Years 1-5 –RM25,000 RM4,670 –RM1,155 = RM5,825 • However we wish to conceptualize this, we need to have an interest rate at which to discount the future cash flows. • That rate is the after-tax rate on the firm’s secured debt.

  15. NPV Analysis of the Lease-vs.-Buy Decision • A lease payment is like the debt service on a secured bond issued by the lessee. • In the real world, many companies discount both the depreciation tax shields and the lease payments at the after-tax interest rate on secured debt issued by the lessee.

  16. There is a simple method for evaluating leases: discount all cash flows at the after-tax interest rate on secured debt issued by the lessee. Suppose that rate is 5 percent. • NPV Leasing Instead of Buying • Year 0 Years 1-5 • RM25,000 –RM1,155 – RM4,670 = -RM5,825 NPV Buying Instead of Leasing Year 0 Years 1-5 -RM25,000 RM4,670 – RM1,155 = RM5,825 NPV Analysis of the Lease-vs.-Buy Decision

  17. Reasons for Leasing • Good Reasons • Taxes may be reduced by leasing. • The lease contract may reduce certain types of uncertainty. • Transactions costs can be higher for buying an asset and financing it with debt or equity than for leasing the asset. • Bad Reasons • Accounting
