Step by step solution

01

Meaning of Lease arrangements

Lease agreements have a bargaining option. Lease payments are typically estimated as collectibles, and there is no significant uncertainty about the lessor’s future expenses. As a result, from the lessor's perspective, the lease qualifies as a capital lease.

(Lessor Computations and Entries, Sales-Type Lease with Unguaranteed Residual Value) 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 lessor and compute the amount of each of the following items.

  1. Lease receivable.

Use the information for Rick Kleckner Corporation from BE21-3. Assume that at December 31, 2017, Kleckner made an adjusting entry to accrue interest expense of \(29,530 on the lease. Prepare Kleckner’s January 1, 2018, journal entry to record the second lease payment of \)53,920.

Rick Kleckner Corporation recorded a capital lease at \(300,000 on January 1, 2017. The interest rate is 12%. Kleckner Corporation made the first lease payment of \)53,920 on January 1, 2017. The lease requires eight annual payments. The equipment has a useful life of 8 years with no salvage value. Prepare Kleckner Corporation’s December 31, 2017, adjusting entries.

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

(a) Discuss the nature of this lease transaction from the viewpoints of both lessee and lessor.

(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

(b) Prepare the journal entry or entries, with explanations, that should be recorded on December 31, 2018, by Ludwick. (Prepare the lease amortization schedule for all five payments.)

Jana Kingston Corporation enters into a lease on January 1, 2017, that does not transfer ownership or contain a bargain-purchase option. It covers 3 years of the equipment’s 8-year useful life, and the present value of the minimum lease payments is less than 90% of the fair value of the asset leased. Prepare Jana Kingston’s journal entry to record its January 1, 2017, annual lease payment of $35,000.
