5.1 Risks and rewards
The classification of a lease is based on the extent to which risks and rewards associated with ownership are transferred from the lessor to the lessee. If a lease transfers substantially all the risks and rewards normally associated with the ownership of an asset it should be classified as a finance lease; otherwise, it should be classified as an operating lease. [IAS 17.8] Examples of the key risks and rewards that arise from the ownership of an asset are shown in the following table. Illustration 3 Risk Reward Losses may arise: where the asset stands idle for some time due to lack of sufficient demand; from a fall in the value of the asset through technical obsolescence; and from meeting the costs of maintaining and repairing the asset. Gains may arise from: the generation of profits from use of the asset; use of the asset for substantially the whole of its useful life; and a potential gain arising on the future sale of the asset where it increases in value.5.2 Situations indicating the existence of a finance lease
In addition to the guidance described above, IAS 17 also sets out specific situations that, individually or collectively, would normally lead to a lease being classified as a finance lease. Such situations include where: ownership of the asset transfers to the lessee by the end of the lease term such arrangements are sometimes known as a hire purchase; although ownership of the asset does not automatically pass to the lessee at the end of the agreement, the lessee has an option to purchase the asset.
