A.1.31 Evergreen Lease Transaction

Evergreen lease in OFSLL refers to a type of lease contract between customer and financial institution in which the customer can use an asset which is still in working condition and agrees to pay a minimum lease amount for a specific term, even if the residual value of asset becomes zero.

This lease amount is a mutually agreed value by both the parties and does not specifically include depreciation cost of asset or the interest component.

For example, if an Evergreen Lease contract is agreed for Lease Payment Amount of $5 and Term of 36 months, the billing is done for lease receivables as follows:

Table A-54 Evergreen Lease contract

Cycle Lease Receivable without Payment Lease Receivable with Monthly Payment Term Remaining Term
0 0 0 0 36
1 5 5 1 35
2 10 5 2 34
3 15 5 3 33
N N x Lease Payment Amount Lease Payment Amount 4 32

Similar to any other lease contract, even in Evergreen Lease the customer is billed for the agreed payment amount until the lease maturity date and lease receivable is updated based on the billing. Other transactions such as late fee, lease payoff and termination are processed as usual.

You can define Evergreen Lease contract in OFSLL by posting EVER GREEN LEASE monetary transaction in Servicing > Customer Service > Maintenance screen at anytime i.e. Before / On / After the account maturity date.

Note:

Evergreen Lease in OFSLL is supported only for INTEREST RATE type of lease calculation method.

If evergreen lease transaction is posted on existing lease account, the lease account is extended up to the term specified and is billed as per the agreed Payment Amount for extended term. Also the Rate and Residual % of the existing lease are updated to 0 and existing balances are closed by either posting an adjustment minus transaction to the account or collecting the payment from customer.
