Leasing and rental: the layers inside company

How companies register. The layers overlap — a car can be both on leasing and registered to a company — so they don’t add up.

  • Company 15,697baseline
  • Leasing (renting) 6,06838.7% of company
  • Rental 1,1507.3% of company

All on the same scale, with company as the baseline. Leasing and rental are layers inside company: they’re compared against it, not a split of it.
