Step by step solution

01

Meaning of Sales-type lease

In a sales-type lease, the lessor is assumed to be selling a product to the lessee, which necessitates the reporting of a profit or loss on the sale. As a result, at the lease's start date, the following accounting is applied: (a) Recognize assets. (b)Recognize net investment.

02

Explaining the nature of the lease for both lessee and the lessor

Jensen has a capital lease since the lease period exceeds 75% of the economic life of the leased asset. The lease period is 78 percent of the economic life of the asset.

This is a capital lease to Glaus because the lease payments are generally predictable, there are no significant uncertainties regarding the lessor's future expenses, and the lease period exceeds 75 percent of the asset's economic life. The lease is a sales-type lease since the market value of the equipment ($700,000) exceeds the lessor's cost ($525,000).

(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鈥檚 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鈥檚 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.
