On January 1, 2024, two private companies that report under ASPE, Blossom Ltd. and Cale Inc., were incorporated. Each company
operates a restaurant and had identical revenues during the year of $2 million but Blossom bought its building for $1.5 million and the
related land for $600,000. The company estimated that the building would have a useful life of 20 years with no residual value.
Blossom uses the straight-line method of depreciation. Because of the building purchase, Blossom had an outstanding 4% bank loan
during the year amounting on average to $2.5 million.
Cale, however, did not buy a building. Instead, it rented a building under a five-year operating lease starting on January 1, 2024, for
$15,000 per month. Because of this, the company had to install leasehold improvements for $200,000, which were completed in the
first few days of January. Because Cale did not have to buy a building, its outstanding 4% bank loan during 2024 averaged only
$350,000.
The income tax rate for both companies is 22%. Assume both companies had identical revenues and expenses except for the items
noted above.
