What are lend-lease payments?
During the mid-1930s, with it becoming clear that war was coming soon to Europe, the US Congress passed a series of laws aimed at keeping the US out of war. These "Neutrality Acts" disallowed the US from getting involved- it even made it illegal to sell weapons and ammunition to anybody involved in a war. Fast forward to 1941. Nazi Germany has overrun much of Europe. France has been defeated and occupied. President Roosevelt, despite the Neutrality Acts, wanted to help the British. So he was able to get a new law passed, which is nicknamed the "Lend-Lease Act". This law got around the Neutrality Acts by not selling weapons. Instead, the guns, tanks, ships, planes, etc were given to countries on the Allied side- mainly Britain and the Soviet Union- and those countries were supposed to give them back after the war was over. They were also supposed to make lease payments, just like if you rent a car or an apartment. However, the reality is that the US was more interested in winning the war than collecting the payments or equipment. After the war, a lot of the debts were ignored or heavily discounted, and those other countries often were allowed to keep most of the equipment they were given under the Act.

What is the significance of 99 years as a lease term for military bases?
I too, in all my years of studying in the field of World War II, have many times contemplated this deep and significant question. Finally after many years, I have come to the distinguished conclusion that 98 years is far too small a number, as it would not properly represent the dominion and power of the United States, and 100 years is too large, for it would make the United States seem a greedy nation.

Why did roosevelt ask congress to pass the lend lease act?
The Lend-Lease act was a treaty of sorts that granted the United States the ability to lease to the Allied Nations materials needed for the war. This proposal was met with great disapproval by Congress and President Roosevelt had a hard time selling his point. He believed however that this act would make America the "arsenal of Democracy".
If lease is discounted for one time payment can that income be amortized for tax purposes over life of lease?
This will depend on your accounting method that you use. If you are a cash basis business, then it is recognized when lease payments are received. If accrual, you could justify amortizing the payment but I cannot imagine why you would want to. I am assuming you are lessor in your question and not the lessee. If you are the one leasing the property, you cannot take a deduction for a lease payment you did not make.

You can lease a car from most dealerships. You can only lease new vehicles and not every vehicle is available to be leased. To lease a car you simply make a small down payment.
