Financial lease:-

1. long term lease
2. one lessee usually
3. accounting treatment:- lessee capitalize leased asset as non-current asset. Hence depreciates it.
obligation to pay future rentals but this must be split between current & non current liabilities.

4. Substance over the foam concept (IAS 1 & 8)

Operating lease:- only renting of the asset

1. short term lease
2. Accounting treatment:- Lessor shows it as non current asset and receives rentals from lessee.

Lessee shows any amount accrued but unpaid as payable.
