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

(d) Prepare the journal entries for both the lessee and lessor to record the first rental payment on January 1, 2017.

The following are four independent situations.

On December 31, 2017, Wasicsko Co. sold a machine to Cross Co. and simultaneously leased it back for one year. The sales price of the machine was \(480,000, the carrying amount is \)420,000, and it had an estimated remaining useful life of 14 years. The present value of the rental payments for the one year is $35,000. At December 31, 2017, how much should Wasicsko report as deferred revenue from the sale of the machine?

(Lessee Computations and Entries, Capital Lease with Unguaranteed Residual Value) Assume the same data as in P21-10 with National Airlines having an incremental borrowing rate of 10%.

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 lessee, and compute the amount of the initial lease liability.

(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.

Instructions

(d) What amounts would appear on Ludwick’s December 31, 2019, balance sheet relative 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

(Round all numbers to the nearest cent.)

(c) Prepare all of the journal entries for the lessor for 2017 and 2018 to record the lease agreement, the receipt of lease payments, and the recognition of income. Assume the lessor’s annual accounting period ends on December 31.
