In an operating lease, a sale is not recorded by the lessor. Instead, the periodic lease payments are accounted for as rent revenue by the lessor. The lessee records a right-of-use asset and lease liability at the present value of the lease payments. Interest expense is recognized at the effective rate times the outstanding balance. Amortization of the right-of-use asset is determined as the amount needed to cause the total lease expense (interest plus amortization) to be a straight-line amount equal to the lease payment.

-The lessee reports a single amount of lease expense, which is equal to interest expense plus amortization expense, in its income statement.

-The lessor reports a single amount of lease revenue, which is equal to interest revenue plus amortization revenue, in its income statement.

-The lessee reports lease expense on a straight-line basis and the lessor reports lease revenue on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Explanation:

The mode of reporting in an operating lease is slightly different from that in a finance lease. For example, the lessor can use a straight-line form of reporting he revenue while the lessee can use a straight-line form of reporting the expense for the given term of the lease. The lessee and lessor usually report expense and revenue respectively.
