Chapter 21: Q21-12P_b(2) (page 1249)

Question: (Basic Lessee Accounting with Difficult PV Calculation) In 2016, Grishell Trucking Company negotiated and closed a long-term lease contract for newly constructed truck terminals and freight storage facilities. The buildings were erected to the company’s specifications on land owned by the company. On January 1, 2017, Grishell Trucking Company took possession of the lease properties. On January 1, 2017 and 2018, the company made cash payments of \(948,000 that were recorded as rental expenses.

Although the terminals have a composite useful life of 40 years, the noncancelable lease runs for 20 years from January 1, 2017, with a bargain-purchase option available upon expiration of the lease.

The 20-year lease is effective for the period January 1, 2017, through December 31, 2036. Advance rental payments of \)800,000 are payable to the lessor on January 1 of each of the first 10 years of the lease term. Advance rental payments of \(320,000 are due on January 1 for each of the last 10 years of the lease. The company has an option to purchase all of these leased facilities for \)1 on December 31, 2036. It also must make annual payments to the lessor of \(125,000 for property taxes and \)23,000 for insurance. The lease was negotiated to assure the lessor a 6% rate of return.

Instructions

Geiberger Corporation manufactures replicators. On January 1, 2017, it leased to Althaus Company a replicator that had cost \(110,000 to manufacture. The lease agreement covers the 5-year useful life of the replicator and requires 5 equal annual rentals of \)40,800 payable each January 1, beginning January 1, 2017. An interest rate of 12% is implicit in the lease agreement. Collectibility of the rentals is reasonably assured, and there are no important uncertainties concerning costs. Prepare Geiberger’s January 1, 2017, journal entries.

(Lessee Entries, Capital Lease with Monthly Payments) Shapiro Inc. was incorporated in 2016 to operate as a computer software service firm with an accounting fiscal year ending August 31. Shapiro’s primary product is a sophisticated online inventory-control system; its customers pay a fixed fee plus a usage charge for using the system.

Shapiro has leased a large, Alpha-3 computer system from the manufacturer. The lease calls for a monthly rental of \(40,000 for the 144 months (12 years) of the lease term. The estimated useful life of the computer is 15 years.

Each scheduled monthly rental payment includes \)3,000 for full-service maintenance on the computer to be performed by the manufacturer. All rentals are payable on the first day of the month beginning with August 1, 2017, the date the computer was installed and the lease agreement was signed. The lease is noncancelable for its 12-year term, and it is secured only by the manufacturer’s chattel lien on the Alpha-3 system.

This lease is to be accounted for as a capital lease by Shapiro, and it will be depreciated by the straight-line method with no expected salvage value. Borrowed funds for this type of transaction would cost Shapiro 12% per year (1% per month). Following is a schedule of the present value of \(1 for selected periods discounted at 1% per period when payments are made at the beginning of each period.
