If a company owns equipment and it is on the books as a fixed asset, then 'leases' it to a financial company for three years -- how do you record the entries?
The financial company pays me $50,000 cash for the equipment. I lease / to own it back over the next three years. What would the JE be for the initial $50,000 and then each lease payment. Is this equipment still part of my fixed assets during these three years?
Thanks,
