An equipment lease is a finance rental arrangement between an equipment owner (the lessor) and a business owner (the lessee). The lessee gets to use the equipment by paying the lessor monthly lease payments over a mutually agreed-upon term length. At the end of the lease term, the lessee may have the option to purchase the equipment for a pre-determined price. Leasing often provides flexibility in upgrading to newer equipment at the end of the lease term. It can
