Are lease payments for computer equipment tax deductible?

i have an assignment about leasing, so this is just a general question. The lease is used for business purposes, at a fixed rate.

If it is an operating lease, then the full amount of each payment is deductible. If it is a capital lease, then only the amount related to interest would be deductible and the equipment would be depreciated.
