An operating lease is a leasing contract which contains terms that are short relative to the useful life of the asset in question.
These types of leases are used in order to acquire equipment on a short-term basis.
A good example would be an airplane which has an economic life of 30 years, may be leased to an airline company for 6 years on an operating lease.
