Dr. Right to use     $100,000

Cr. Lease Liability $100,000

Explanation:

Lease Liability is recorded at the present value of the future lease cash flows. The lease to use an Asset is a right for which the lessee pays. The right to use is considered as an asset. So it is debited as assets have debit balances. On the other hand a Lease Liability for the same amount is incurred which needs to be adjusted in whole lease period.
