    Lease A Capital lease

    Lease B Capital lease

    Explanation:

    A capital lease is a contract that that entitles a renter temporary usage of an asset. So for accounting purposes it is considered that for that period the renter is the owner of the asset.

    To be considered a capital lease it must satisfy any of these criteria:

    - The life of the lease must be equal to or greater than 75%

    - There should be a bargaining option for price less than market value

    - The lessee will gain ownership at the end of lease period

    - The present value of lease should be greater than 90% of market value of asset

    Both of these properties satisfy at least one of these criteria so they are both capital leases.
