Explaining Perriman account for the leaseback portion of the sale-leaseback transaction on January 1, 2017

On January 1, 2017, Perriman should account for the leaseback portion of the sale-leaseback transaction by recording an asset and a liability equal to the present value at the start of the lease term of minimum lease payments during the lease term, excluding any portion of the payments representing executory costs, plus any profit. If the present value of the leased equipment on January 1, 2017, exceeds its fair value, the amount reported for the asset and liability should reflect the equipment's fair value.

(Lessor Computations and Entries, Sales-Type Lease with Unguaranteed Residual Value) George Company manufactures a check-in kiosk with an estimated economic life of 12 years and leases it to National Airlines for a period of 10 years. The normal selling price of the equipment is \(278,072, and its unguaranteed residual value at the end of the lease term is estimated to be \)20,000. National will pay annual payments of \(40,000 at the beginning of each year and all maintenance, insurance, and taxes. George incurred costs of \)180,000 in manufacturing the equipment and $4,000 in negotiating and closing the lease. George has determined that the collectibility of the lease payments is reasonably predictable, that no additional costs will be incurred, and that the implicit interest rate is 10%.

Instructions

(a) Discuss the nature of this lease in relation to the lessor and compute the amount of each of the following items.

(3) Cost of sales.

The lessee assumes responsibility for all executory costs, which are expected to amount to \)5,000 per year. The asset will revert to the lessor at the end of the lease term. The lessee has guaranteed the lessor a residual value of $50,000. The lessee uses the straightline depreciation method for all equipment.

Instructions

(b) Prepare all of the journal entries for the lessee for 2017 and 2018 to record the lease agreement, the lease payments, and all expenses related to this lease. Assume the lessee’s annual accounting period ends on December 31 and reversing entries are used when appropriate.

Winston Industries and Ewing Inc. enter into an agreement that requires Ewing Inc. to build three diesel-electric engines to Winston’s specifications. Upon completion of the engines, Winston has agreed to lease them for a period of 10 years and to assume all costs and risks of ownership. The lease is noncancelable, becomes effective on January 1, 2017, and requires annual rental payments of \(413,971 each January 1, starting January 1, 2017.

Winston’s incremental borrowing rate is 10%. The implicit interest rate used by Ewing Inc. and known to Winston is 8%. The total cost of building the three engines is \)2,600,000. The economic life of the engines is estimated to be 10 years, with residual value set at zero. Winston depreciates similar equipment on a straight-line basis. At the end of the lease, Winston assumes title to the engines. Collectibility of the lease payments is reasonably certain; no uncertainties exist relative to unreimbursable lessor costs.

Instructions

(c) Prepare the journal entry or entries to record the transaction on January 1, 2017, on the books of Ewing Inc.

Question: (Lessee Entries and Balance Sheet Presentation, Capital Lease) On January 1, 2017, Cage Company contracts to lease equipment for 5 years, agreeing to make a payment of \(137,899 (including the executory costs of \)6,000) at the beginning of each year, starting January 1, 2017. The taxes, the insurance, and the maintenance, estimated at \(6,000 a year, are the obligations of the lessee. The leased equipment is to be capitalized at \)550,000. The asset is to be depreciated on a double-declining-balance basis, and the obligation is to be reduced on an effective-interest basis. Cage’s incremental borrowing rate is 12%, and the implicit rate in the lease is 10%, which is known by Cage. Title to the equipment transfers to Cage when the lease expires. The asset has an estimated useful life of 5 years and no residual value.

Instructions

(a) Explain the probable relationship of the $550,000 amount to the lease arrangement.

Morgan Leasing Company signs an agreement on January 1, 2017, to lease equipment to Cole Company. The following information relates to this agreement.

  1. The term of the noncancelable lease is 6 years with no renewal option. The equipment has an estimated economic life of 6 years.
  2. The cost of the asset to the lessor is \(245,000. The fair value of the asset at January 1, 2017, is \)245,000.
  3. The asset will revert to the lessor at the end of the lease term, at which time the asset is expected to have a residual value of $43,622, none of which is guaranteed.
  4. Cole Company assumes direct responsibility for all executory costs.
  5. The agreement requires equal annual rental payments, beginning on January 1, 2017.
  6. Collectibility of the lease payments is reasonably predictable. There are no important uncertainties surrounding the amount of costs yet to be incurred by the lessor.

Instructions
