Chapter 21: Q16P_d. (page 1250)

(Lessee-Lessor Accounting for Residual Values) Goring Dairy leases its milking equipment from King Finance Company under the following lease terms.

  1. The lease term is 10 years, noncancelable, and requires equal rental payments of \(30,300 due at the beginning of each year starting January 1, 2017.
  2. The equipment has a fair value and cost at the inception of the lease (January 1, 2017) of \)220,404, an estimated economic life of 10 years, and a residual value (which is guaranteed by Goring Dairy) of \(20,000.
  3. The lease contains no renewable options, and the equipment reverts to King Finance Company upon termination of the lease.
  4. Goring Dairy’s incremental borrowing rate is 9% per year. The implicit rate is also 9%.
  5. Goring Dairy depreciates similar equipment that it owns on a straight-line basis.
  6. Collectibility of the payments is reasonably predictable, and there are no important uncertainties surrounding the costs yet to be incurred by the lessor.

Instructions

(d) On the lessor’s books, what would be the amount recorded as the Net Investment (Lease Receivable) at the inception of the lease, assuming:

  1. The residual value of \)20,000 had been guaranteed by a third party?
  2. The residual value of $20,000 had not been guaranteed at all?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(1) And (2) are both $220,404, as residual value exists whether or not it is guaranteed.

Step by step solution

01

Meaning of Guaranteed Residual Value

When a lease expires, a lessee may pay an extra payment in property, cash, or both. Guaranteed residual values are financial promises made by the lessee and are used in the minimum lease payment calculation.

02

Explaining the amount that should be recorded as the net investment at the inception of the lease.

In both, the situation when the residual value of $20,000 had been guaranteed by a third party and the residual value of $20,000 had not been guaranteed at all results in the same lease liability of $220,404 since the residual value exists whether or not it is guaranteed.

Assume that IBM leased equipment that was carried at a cost of \(150,000 to Sharon Swander Company. The term of the lease is 6 years beginning January 1, 2017, with equal rental payments of \)30,044 at the beginning of each year. All executory costs are paid by Swander directly to third parties. The fair value of the equipment at the inception of the lease is $150,000. The equipment has a useful life of 6 years with no salvage value. The lease has an implicit interest rate of 8%, no bargain-purchase option, and no transfer of title. Collectibility is reasonably assured with no additional cost to be incurred by IBM. Prepare IBM’s January 1, 2017, journal entries at the inception of the lease.

Callaway Golf Co. leases telecommunications equipment. Assume the following data for equipment leased from Photon Company. The lease term is 5 years and requires equal rental payments of \(31,000 at the beginning of each year. The equipment has a fair value at the inception of the lease of \)138,000, an estimated useful life of 8 years, and no residual value.

Callaway pays all executory costs directly to third parties. Photon set the annual rental to earn a rate of return of 10%, and this fact is known to Callaway. The lease does not transfer title or contain a bargain-purchase option. How should Callaway classify this lease?

(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

(c) Prepare the journal entry or entries, with explanations, that should be recorded on December 31, 2019, by Ludwick.

The following are four independent situations.

(d) On January 1, 2017, Sondgeroth Co. sold equipment with an estimated useful life of 5 years. At the same time, Sondgeroth leased back the equipment for 2 years under a lease classified as an operating lease. The sales price (fair value) of the equipment was \(212,700, the carrying amount is \)300,000, the monthly rental under the lease is \(6,000, and the present value of the rental payments is \)115,753. For the year ended December 31, 2017, determine which items would be reported on its income statement for the sale-leaseback transaction.

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.)
