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
(e) Prepare the journal entries for both the lessee and lessor to record interest expense (revenue) at December 31, 2017. (Prepare a lease amortization schedule for 2 years.)
(Lessee Entries and Balance Sheet Presentation, Capital Lease) Ludwick Steel Company as lessee signed a lease agreement for equipment for 5 years, beginning December 31, 2017. Annual rental payments of \(40,000 are to be made at the beginning of each lease year (December 31). The taxes, insurance, and the maintenance costs are the obligation of the lessee. The interest rate used by the lessor in setting the payment schedule is 9%; Ludwick’s incremental borrowing rate is 10%. Ludwick is unaware of the rate being used by the lessor. At the end of the lease, Ludwick has the option to buy the equipment for \)1, considerably below its estimated fair value at that time. The equipment has an estimated useful life of 7 years, with no salvage value. Ludwick uses the straight-line method of depreciation on similar owned equipment.

(c) Prepare the journal entry or entries, with explanations, that should be recorded on December 31, 2019, by Ludwick.
Question: The following facts pertain to a noncancelable lease agreement between Faldo Leasing Company and Vance Company, a lessee.
Inception date | January 1, 2017 |
Annual lease payment due at the beginning of each year, beginning with January 1, 2017 | \(124,798 |
Residual value of equipment at end of lease term, guaranteed by the lessee | \)50,000 |
Lease term | 6 years |
Economic life of leased equipment | 6 years |
Fair value of asset at January 1, 2017 | \(600,000 |
Lessor’s implicit rate | 12% |
Lessee’s incremental borrowing rate | 12% |
The lessee assumes responsibility for all executory costs, which are expected to amount to \)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.
