If the Lease Begins "At or near the End" of an Asset's

question 188

True/False

If the lease begins "at or near the end" of an asset's economic life, the criterion of the lease term being for the major part of the economic life does not apply when classifying the type of lease. This is consistent with the basic premise of this criterion that most of the risks and rewards of ownership occur prior to that time.
