Identify the lease classifications for lessors and the criteria that must be met for each classification.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The grouping of operating leases, direct-financed lessee and sale type leases are classified from the lessor's point of view for accounting purposes.

Step by step solution

01

Meaning of Lease

In exchange for one or more payments, a lessor agrees to allow a lessee to have authority over the use of a specific property, plant, or equipment for a specified length of time. Depending on whether an entity is a lessee or a lessor, there are different types of lease designations.

02

Explaining the lease classifications for lessors and the criteria that must be met for each classification.

A capital lease fits one or more of the following three characteristics from the perspective of the lessor:

  1. Ownership is transferred through a lease.
  2. A lease period is equal to or exceeds 75% of a property's expected economic life.
  3. The present value of the minimum lease payments (excluding executory expenses) is equal to or surpasses 90% of a property's fair value.

And meet both of the following criteria:

  1. A lessee's ability to pay is relatively foreseeable, and
  2. There are no significant uncertainties regarding the amount of un-reimbursable expenditures yet to be spent by the lessor.

Direct-financing and sales-type capital leases are the two types of capital leases. The existence or absence of a manufacturer's or dealer's profit or loss is what distinguishes a direct-financing lease from a sales-type lease for a lessor.

(b) Prepare a lease amortization schedule for Mooney Leasing Company for the 5-year lease term.

(Type of Lease; Amortization Schedule) Mike Macinski Leasing Company leases a new machine that has a cost and fair value of $95,000 to Sharrer Corporation on a 3-year noncancelable contract. Sharrer Corporation agrees to assume all risks of normal ownership including such costs as insurance, taxes, and maintenance. The machine has a 3-year useful life and no residual value. The lease was signed on January 1, 2017. Mike Macinski Leasing Company expects to earn a 9% return on its investment. The annual rentals are payable on each December 31.

Instructions

  1. Discuss the nature of the lease arrangement and the accounting method that each party to the lease should apply.

Use the information for IBM from BE21-6. Assume the direct-financing lease was recorded at a present value of \(150,000. Prepare IBM鈥檚 December 31, 2017, entry to record interest.

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鈥檚 January 1, 2017, journal entries at the inception of the lease.

Annual lease payment due at the beginning of each year, beginning with October 1, 2017

\)62,700

The collectibility of the lease payments is reasonably predictable, and there are no important uncertainties surrounding the costs yet to be incurred by the lessor. The lessee assumes responsibility for all executory costs, which amount to \(5,500 per year and are to be paid each October 1, beginning October 1, 2017. (This \)5,500 is not included in the rental payment of \(62,700.) The asset will revert to the lessor at the end of the lease term. The straight-line depreciation method is used for all equipment.

The following amortization schedule has been prepared correctly for use by both the lessor and the lessee in accounting for this lease. The lease is to be accounted for properly as a capital lease by the lessee and as a direct-financing lease by the lessor.
