Hello,

 

We had two cars on operating lease.

Car #1 was totaled in car accident. Insurance company sent insurance payment cheque to leasing company.
We paid out lease of totaled car #1 by the insurance payment.
We did lease buyout of the car#2 by the same insurance payment.
Leasing company sent us remainder of that insurance payment. It's deposited on our bank account.
How to record all of it in our books?


Thanks!
