Sales-Type Leases
Sales-Type Leases
We have certain customer leases providing bargain purchase options, which are accounted for as sales-type leases. Interest income is recognized over the life of the lease using the effective interest method.
The initial acceptance of customer finance arrangements is based on an in-depth review of each customer’s credit profile, including review of third party credit reports, customer financial statements and bank verifications. We monitor the credit quality of our sales-type lease portfolio based on payment activity that drives the finance lease receivable aging. This credit quality is assessed on a monthly basis. Our historical losses on finance lease receivables are insignificant, and therefore we do not have a specific allowance for credit losses.
The minimum lease payments receivable and the net investment included in other assets for such leases were as follows:
