The Corporation enters into both lessor and lessee arrangements. For more information on lease accounting, see Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Principles, and on lease financing receivables, see Note 5 – Outstanding Loans and Leases.

Lessor Arrangements

The Corporation’s lessor arrangements primarily consist of operating, sales-type and direct financing leases for equipment. Lease agreements may include options to renew and for the lessee to purchase the leased equipment at the end of the lease term.

At December 31, 2019, the total net investment in sales-type and direct financing leases was $21.9 billion, comprised of $19.3 billion in lease receivables and $2.6 billion in unguaranteed residuals. In certain cases, the Corporation obtains third-party residual value insurance to reduce its residual asset risk. The carrying value of residual assets with third-party residual value insurance for at least a portion of the asset value was $5.8 billion.

For 2019, total lease income was $1.7 billion, consisting of $797 million from sales-type and direct financing leases and $891 million from operating leases.

Lessee Arrangements

The Corporation’s lessee arrangements predominantly consist of operating leases for premises and equipment; the Corporation’s

financing leases are not significant. Right-of-use assets were $9.7 billion and lease liabilities were $10.1 billion at December 31, 2019. The weighted-average discount rate used to calculate the present value of future minimum lease payments was four percent.

Lease terms may contain renewal and extension options and early termination features. Generally, these options do not impact the lease term because the Corporation is not reasonably certain that it will exercise the options. The weighted-average lease term was 8.2 years at December 31, 2019.

The table below provides the components of lease cost and supplemental information for 2019.
