Creating More Value for Lease

Tax rate differences between lessor and 

lessee

Realizing depreciation deduction by lessor and 

lessee

Asset acquisition and maintenance cost –

specialization or scale of economies

Realizing salvage values – superiority of 

property knowledge

Leverage abilities between lessor and lessee – difference in interest deductibility

Little options holding significant value

Lessor can purchase equipment more cost 

effectively; tax deductions for Interest 

and Depreciation

Tailored to meet lessor’s needs – heavier payments in Dec than in 

June

Leveraged Lease

•An independent third party to the transaction• Acted as owner‐trustee• Rental payments would flows through• Would distribute the payments to either EDC or BNCYF

Equity and debt funds on closing 

would flow through Wilmington Trust..,

• At the end of lease term, could buy equipment from BNCYF at higher terminal fair market value

• Had an early‐buyout option, could acquire the equipment from BNCYF in 2017 for $126.6 million

Federal SourcesCould use federal monies to fund equipment purchases

Congress mandated not to use federal 

subsidies for operating expenses

Congress agreed to fund for capital appropriations

Federal grants considered as premium and 

precious commodity

Preferred to use grant money to fund capital projects that could not be easily and cost‐effectively financed such as..,•Safety•Right‐of‐way•Infrastructure‐related projects•Major overhauls

Train sets and other rolling stock, could be very efficiently financed

BNY Capital Funding LLC's Proposed Lease-Payment Schedule (in Dollars)

Date Due

Page 16: 5 Sources of Financing

Financial Lease

Total lease rental > asset 

price

Lease period = life of asset

Irrevocable by both parties

Purpose: financing an 

asset

Also called ‘capital lease’

Lessee bears: maintenance,          insurance, taxes

31

Page 17: 5 Sources of Financing

Min lease rental = rate ~ equal to lessee marginal 

cost of debt

Payout will include; asset cost, cost of financing, lessor 

overhead, rate of return

Similar to mortgage loans

32

Financial Lease

Page 18: 5 Sources of Financing

Test for Capitalizing Lease

Ownership test: ownership transferred to lessee at the end of 

lease

Alternative ownership test: lessee has right to buy asset at a price 

substantially below fair market price

Economic life test: lease term >= 75% of 

estimated economic life of the asset

Value test: PV of minimum lease 

payment >= 90% of fair market value of asset at 

the time of lease

33

Page 19: 5 Sources of Financing

Operating Lease

No fixed future commitment

Cancelable by lessee on notice

Purpose: using an asset

Lessor bears: maintenance,             insurance, taxes

34

Page 20: 5 Sources of Financing

Types of Financial Leases

Direct leases ‐ Lessor purchased equipment or asset and rented it 

out to lessee

Sale‐and‐leaseback Leveraged leases

Cross border (international) lease

Foreign to foreign lease

35

Page 21: 5 Sources of Financing

Assets Suitable for Leveraged Lease

Airplane Satellites Ships

Rails Off‐shore drinking

Nuclear machines

Power generation plants

Large chemical plants

Gas pipe lines

36Loan is secured by first lien in the equipment by an assignment of leased equipment

and leased rental payments

Page 22: 5 Sources of Financing

Basic documents used  in Leveraged Lease

Participation agreement – signed by all parties Trust agreement

Indenture trust

Lease agreement – for tax shield associated with asset ownership and residual value of 

asset

37

Page 23: 5 Sources of Financing

Direct Lease

Hybrid of operating and financial lease

Payout will not include; Repairs, Maintenance, and 

Taxes

Duration: 3 or more years

Lessor holds the title

At expiration: lessee may renew 

or purchaseFull payout

38

Page 24: 5 Sources of Financing

Types of Leases

Master lease: blanket leasing

Percentage lease: flat rental + additional rental over and above a revenue

Wet and dry lease –used in airline 

industry

Triple net lease – net of insurance, 

maintenance, taxes….

39

Page 25: 5 Sources of Financing

Types of Leases

Closed end and open end lease – ownership possibilities opened to 

lessee

Swap lease –exchange assets in 

need of major repairs

Full pay‐out lease

True lease – fully goes with the local rules and regulations of a 

country

40

Page 26: 5 Sources of Financing

Types of Leases

Wash lease – tax benefit transferred 

to investor

Upgrade lease –used in 

obsolescence

Capital lease – to transfer ownership to lessee at the end 

of lease term

Employee lease –transferring 

employees to Lessor and leasing it back

41

Page 27: 5 Sources of Financing

Lease vs. BuyingIncreases company’s debt 

capacityPublic market is saturated 

with Amtrak debtAlso includes interest 

component

Investors will not recognize a financial lease liability as a form of debt? Liabilities: PV of financial lease payments and Assets: PV of financial 

lease payments

Possibility of increasing book income buy avoiding 

depreciation and interest? ‐Lease payments includes depreciation and interest

In world of no taxes; leasing = borrow‐and‐buy

Lease amount higher or lower indifference pointwould result in value 

destruction for both parties
