Finance Lease is expressed as an agreement wherein the lessor receives lease payments for the covering of ownership costs. Moreover, the lessor holds the responsibility of maintenance, taxes, and insurance.

 

A capital lease is a lease in which the lessor only finances the leased asset, and all other rights of ownership transfer to the lessee.
