60 BowtockThis is a finance lease because it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee, as shown by the following indicators:
• The asset's useful life is five years and the lease is also for five years. Therefore the asset is being held for the whole of its useful life.• The cash price of the asset is equivalent to its present value of minimum lease payments.
The asset is capitalised and depreciated over its five year useful life, and the obligation to make lease payments is recognised as a liability.

If a leased is classified as an operating lease, there would not be a leased asset or lease obligation recorded in the statement of financial position; whereas there would be if it were a finance lease or an outright purchase. Thus capital employed under an operating lease would be lower leading to a higher (more favourable) ROCE. The finance director’s comment that if the lease is classified as operating lease, the ROCE would improve, is true.
IAS 17 Leases defines a finance lease as one which transfers to the lessee substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership. In this case, as the asset will be used by Fino for its entire useful life makes a classification as a finance lease seems appropriate. Thus the finance director’s intention to mislead the users will be prohibited by IAS 17.
