Homework No. 1 Question #1 On June 30, year 1, Mercury, Inc. leased warehouse equipment from Unicorn Leasing Corporation. The lease agreement calls for Mercury to make semiannual lease payments of $300,482 over a seven-year lease term (also the asset’s useful life), payable each June 30 and December 31, with the first payment on June 30, year 1. Mercury’s incremental borrowing rate is 11%, the same rate Unicorn used to calculate lease payment amounts. Unicorn purchased the equipment from Builders, Inc. at a cost of $3.04 million. Required: 1. What amount related to the lease would Unicorn (the lessor) report in its balance sheet on December 31, year 1? 2. What amount related to the lease would Unicorn (the lessor) report in its income statement for the year ended December 31, year 1? Question #2 On January 1, year 1, Mitchell-Marsh Services, Inc., a computer software training firm, leased several computers under a two-year operating lease agreement from Global Computers Corporation, which routinely finances equipment for other firms at an annual interest rate of 6%. The contract calls for four rent payments of $15,000 each, payable semi-annually on June 30 and December 31 each year. The computers were acquired by Global Computers at a cost of $120,000 and were expected to have a useful life of six years with no residual value. Both firms record amortization and depreciation semi-annually. Required: Prepare the appropriate journal entries for both (a) the lessee and (b) the lessor from the beginning of the lease through the end of year 1.
Question #3 Andco Fabrications leased a tooling machine on January 1, year 1, for a three-year period ending December 31, year 3. The lease agreement specified annual payments of $72,000 beginning with the first payment at the beginning of the lease, and each December 31 through year 2. The company had the option to purchase the machine on December 30, year 3, for $90,000 when its fair value was expected to be $120,000, a sufficient difference that exercise seems reasonably certain. The machine’s estimated useful life was six years with no salvage value. Andco was aware that the lessor’s implicit rate of return was 12%. Required: 1. Calculate the amount Andco should record as a right-of-use asset and lease liability for this finance lease. 2. Prepare an amortization schedule that describes the pattern of interest expense for Andco over the lease term. 3. Prepare the appropriate entries for Andco from the beginning of the lease through the end of the lease term.
