Our company going to take some cars on lease for office purpose (ours is not a travel operator company)
I would like to know the accounting treatment for this, whether these cars to be capitalized in our books or just the car rentals to be booked as expenses.

if the cars are taken under finance lease then it has to be capitalised. if its operating lease then lease rrntals are to be expensed out

If the cars have been leased for substantially the whole life of the cars, then the lease is to be classified as finance lease, otherwise operating lease.
