A biliary stricture is any blockage in the biliary tree, whether due to an obstruction within the ducts, damage of the bile duct walls, or deformities. A blocked bile duct will affect the outflow of bile from the liver and cause it to back up in the biliary tree (cholestasis).
Some companies prefer to use capital leases as the accelerated depreciation allows them to expense the assets (for tax purposes) more quickly up front instead of evenly over the life of the lease. There are also interest expense components of the lease payments they will be able to separately expense.
BREAKING DOWN 'Capitalized Lease Method'. When a lease is capitalized, the lessee creates an asset account for the leased item, and the asset value on the balance sheet is the lesser of fair market value or the present value of the lease payments. The lessee also posts a lease obligation in the liability section of the balance sheet for the same dollar amount as the asset.
