I am trying to do a lease versus lease analysis whereby one lease is
an operating lease and one is a capital lease.  Can anyone tell me how
to do that analysis or advise me where I can get reference material to
answer.  This is for capital equipment, not real estate if that makes
any difference.
Answer  
There is no answer at this time.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13 (as amended)
provides guidance for leases...you can get a copy from www.fasb.org
