皇冠体育app second of the five conditions which must be satisfied before a lease comes within Chapter 2 of Part 21 of CTA 2010 targets directly the mischief at which Chapter 2 is aimed, namely the capacity of some finance leases to give the lessor a return on its investment which takes the form of capital rather than rental income.
皇冠体育app condition is that under the leasing arrangements (see BLM70520) there may be payable to the lessor or a connected person a sum which is not rent but which under GAAP is treated:
