PROJECT PAPER ANNOTATION.

Theme:  “Leasing”

This project considers the problem of leasing relations along with the lessor and the lessee include additional figure - the seller of the leased property, which is absent in the lease.

I have considered the difference between leasing and lease, because many people identify these two aspects. For the lease of the owner of the property, passing it for a certain period of temporary use, in the established term gets it back, and for the provided service receives Commission fee.

In the implementation of the leasing transaction the parties have entered into at least two contracts: purchase-sale contract and the contract of lease.

For the lease of the active role of the lessee, which is not characteristic of lease relations.

Оn expiration of the lease provides for the following options relationship of parties: the extension of the agreement, to return the property, the transfer of the right of ownership to the property to the lessee.

And of course, there are a lot of benefits of leasing as for lesser, for the lessee and for the state. First of all, leasing payments are fully included in the cost price of production (services), which significantly reduces the tax base and gives the opportunity to save on the tax on profit. Then leasing allows you to attract significant amounts of private investment in the economy of the country.

 

 

Introduction.

The idea of leasing is one of the oldest in entrepreneurial activity. The disclosure of the essence of the leasing transaction dates back to distant times of Aristotle.

The economic essence of leasing for a long time remains in dispute. The content and its role in the theory and practice is interpreted in different ways and are often contradictory.

Some consider leasing as a way of crediting of business activities, other fully identify it with the long-term rent or to one of its forms.

For the lease of the owner of the property, passing it for a certain period of temporary use, in the established term gets it back, and for the provided service receives Commission fee.

Speaking about leasing, many spend the analogy with the lease, and at the same time almost totally identify these concepts. In fact, there are some differences of leasing from the lease.

 

Chapter 1. Leasing versus lease.

Leasing relations along with the lessor and the lessee include additional figure - the seller of the leased property, which is absent in the lease.

In the implementation of the leasing transaction the parties have entered into at least two contracts: purchase-sale contract and the contract of lease.

For the lease of the active role of the lessee, which is not characteristic of lease relations. The preemptive right choice of property and the seller belongs to the user. The lessor shall be obliged to inform the seller of the property that it is acquired specially for delivery in financial rent (leasing).

Property letting in the lease, as a rule, is not the manufacturer or the initial owner of, a financial institution or specialized leasing company;

When calculating the lease payments is recorded the purchase price of the property, the period of time for which is a leasing contract, the residual value, the creditworthiness of the lessee, as well as the existing legislation, particularly in respect of taxation and the periods of depreciation; the calculation of the lease payments amount of payments depends mainly on the market conditions.

In contrast to the lease relations, with leasing, the lessee is vested with the rights and duties inherent to the buyer.

Differently distributed risks in the contracts of lease and leasing, associated with the shortcomings detected in the property: under the contract of lease the lessor is liable to the lessee for all the shortcomings that impede the use of the property, and according to the leasing contract, the lessor shall not be, as a rule, any liability for the above shortcomings. The lessor is also free from warranty on the property.

In contrast to the lease relations, in the event of early termination of the leasing contract on fault or on request of the lessee, as a rule, the last must repay the total amount stipulated in the contract.

On expiration of the lease, the lessee is obliged to return the property; on expiry of the lease provides for the following options relationship of parties: the extension of the agreement, to return the property, the transfer of the right of ownership to the property to the lessee.

According to the Federal law «On financial lease (leasing)», lease - a combination of economic and legal relations that arise in connection with the sale of a lease agreement, including the acquisition of a subject of leasing.

In turn, the leasing contract is a contract under which the lessor undertakes to acquire the property specified by the lessee the property from them the same seller and transfer it into temporary ownership, use the certain conditions for a certain amount and for a certain period with the right of or without the right of further redemption.

Leasing in Russia underwent several stages of formation of the economic forms and its legal environment since the end of 80-ies - early 90-ies of the previous century.

Chapter 2. Functions and objects of leasing.

There are the following functions of leasing:

1) the Finance function is expressed in the liberation of the lessee from a lump-sum payment of the full value of the property;

2) the production - is an opportunity of operative solving of production problems with the temporary use and not expensive property;

3) sales - is an opportunity of expansion of sales channels, the conquest of new markets, increase in sales volume;

4) the function of receiving tax benefits. Firstly, for the leased property, there is a possibility of application of accelerated amortization with a coefficient of up to 3 (in addition to fixed assets related to the 1 - 3 depreciation groups). In connection with this also reduces the total amount of tax on property, subject to payment. Also there is the possibility of attributing the cost of leasing payments, thus it turns out the tax savings on income tax.

Objects of leasing can be any unemployed things, including buildings, structures, vehicles, equipment, as well as the company as a whole and other movable and immovable property used for entrepreneurial activity.

Thus, the first requirement for the subjects of leasing is using them exclusively for business purposes. This excludes the provision of property under a leasing contract physical persons for personal purposes, as well as public, non-profit organizations.

Objects of leasing may not be land plots and other natural objects, the property, which the Federal laws prohibited for free circulation or for which is set the special procedure of treatment, as well as intangible assets.

The most common objects are transport facilities, equipment, less often - the objects of real estate.

Chapter 3. Participants of leasing relations.

All participants of leasing relations are divided into direct and indirect. The direct participants of the leasing transaction, that is, to the so-called subjects of leasing are only three members - leasing policy, the lessors, suppliers (sellers) of the leased property. Indirect same participants of the leasing transaction are banks, insurance companies, intermediary organizations, leasing brokers. May not be the subjects of leasing public, charitable organizations and other non-commercial associations of enterprises.

The lessor - a natural or legal person who, at the expense of attracted and (or) own funds acquires in the course of implementation of a leasing agreement the owner of the property and provides it as a subject of leasing to the lessee for a fee, for a certain period of time and under certain conditions for temporary possession and use with the transition or without the transfer to the lessee of the right of ownership of the leased asset.

The lessee - a natural or legal person who, in accordance with the contract of leasing shall be obliged to accept the leased asset for a fee, for a certain period of time and under certain conditions for temporary possession and use in accordance with the leasing agreement.

The seller is a natural or legal person who, in accordance with the contract of purchase and sale by the lessor sells the lessor in a specified time the property which is the subject of leasing. The seller may simultaneously act as the lessee within the same legal relationship.

In our country of any of the subjects of leasing can be a resident or non-resident of the Russian Federation, as well as a subject of entrepreneurial activity with the participation of a foreign investor, which carries out its activity in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation.

In Western countries and in Russia's leasing services market is characterized by the diversity of forms of leasing, models of leasing contracts and legal norms, regulating leasing operations and defining the rights and obligations of the lessor and the lessee.

Earlier the term «operating lease» is mentioned in the law on leasing, and then was deleted;
