How direct financing leases process works?

• The lessor accounts for the income from the sale over time as the lease
payments are made.

• When the asset is leased, the lessor removes the asset's book value from
its balance sheet and replaces it with a receivable equal to the book value.

• The difference between the total future proceeds and the book value of
the property when it is at the time of the lease will be the profit the lessor
will receive.
