Answer:
-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.
