Diffen âº Business âº Accounting. There are two kinds of accounting methods for leases: operating and capital lease. A vast majority are operating leases. An operating lease is treated like renting -- payments are considered operational expenses and the asset being leased stays off the balance sheet. In contrast, a capital lease is more like a loan; the asset is treated as being owned by the lessee so it stays on the balance sheet. The accounting treatment for capital and operating leases is different, and can have a significant impact on taxes owed by the business.
