Under ASC 842, how does an Operating Lease affect the Income Statement compared to a Finance (Capital) Lease?
- An Operating Lease records a single lease expense, while a Finance Lease records separate interest and depreciation expenses.
- Both lease classifications produce identical Interest and Depreciation charges on the income statement under ASC 842.
- Finance Leases produce lower total reported expenses during the early years of the lease term compared to Operating Leases.
- Operating Leases are excluded entirely from Income Statement recognition under the updated ASC 842 lease standard.
