Instructions

(Round all numbers to the nearest cent.)

(a) Compute the amount of the lease receivable at the inception of the lease.

In a sales-type lease, the lessor is assumed to be selling a product to the lessee, which necessitates the reporting of a profit or loss on the sale. As a result, at the lease's start date, the following accounting is applied: (a) Recognize assets. (b)Recognize net investment.

Note:A bargain-purchase option is included in the lease agreement. From the perspective of the lessor, the lease qualifies as a finance lease.

The lease is a sales-type lease since the amount of the sale (which in this case equals the present value of the minimum lease payments, $81,000) exceeds the lessor's cost ($65,000).

The recurrent yearly rentals plus the bargain-purchase option make up the minimum lease payments for this lease. In this lease, there is no residual value that is significant to the lessor's accounting.
