Take Average of the payment

Q

Operating Leases: Free or reduced rent

A

Lessee take total rent expense to be paid and divides it evenly over the entire lease period
Example:
Payments for 5 year lease are paid in 56 months (60 months for 5 year lease)

First 4 months are “rent free”

-so you take the total rent to be paid (payment per month * 56 months) / 60 months = New payment per month

Q

Operating Leases: Lessor Recording Revenue (giving incentives)

A

If first 6 months are given free = Rental Income for the year is half.

Thus:

5 year lease with first 6 month free:
Yr1: rental payment/2 = Income
Yr2-5: normal rental payment

-Add all payments together and divide by 5 to get
actual payment per year.

A

Lessee records lease at “lesser of”:

Q

Capital Leases: Current Liabilities

A

Payment - Interest (calculated on most recent carrying value) = Current liability at the end of the year

Example: Payments on 12/31 but payment was made on 12/30 at start of lease

(Total Lease - first payment) = New Carrying Value

  • (Next Payment - interest (from new carrying value))

=Current Liability (payment applied to principal)

=remainder is long-term liability

Capital Leases: Balance in Liability Account at YE (lease liability)
Difference Between: Total Payment and Interest for the Year = Amount applied to principal subtract that from lease balance = New carrying value (balance at YE)
26
Capital Leases: Initial Payment Made (Full Calc)
PV of entire lease -Initial Payment =Liability Under Capital Lease** *Interest Rate =Interest for the year -Normal Lease Payment =Net payment applied to principal ( - from **)
27
Capital Leases: IFRS Finance Leases
+Direct Costs to Lease amount then Depreciated over the life of the lease
28
Capital Leases: Sales-type lease and COGS
COGS = Historical Cost of Asset - PV of Non-guaranteed residual value discounted over life of lease. So COGS by definition is less than the historical cost of the asset
29
Sales/Leaseback: Capital
Any profit/loss on sale/leaseback shall be deferred and amortized in proportion to depreciation taken on the leased back asset.
30
Sales/Leaseback: IFRS
Capital/Finance = Substantially all risk and reward is transferred to lessee. -PV of lease payments is "substantially all of the FV of the asset and the lease term is the life of the asset Any profit/gain is deferred and amortized over the life of the lease Twist: IF the lease is "operating" but the FV is greater than the sale price, defer and amortize a gain
31
Sale/leaseback: US GAAP
If PV of lease payments is <10% of FV of asset or term of leas is <10% of asset useful life recognize any profit/loss immediately (none is deferred) If FV is less than BV at time of sale/leaseback transaction, recognize a loss immediately. Gain would be deferred if lessee-seller remains in control of asset for the rest of the useful life of the asset
32
Derivatives: Forward Contracts (Speculation)
Gain/loss from Forward Contract entered into for speculation is calculated as: =Forward Rate at date of transaction - Forward Rate at B/S date
33
Derivatives: Definition (per SFAS No.133)
Derivative: 1. Must have more than one underlying (value) 2. Does not require an initial investment
34
Derivatives: Gain/Losses from Changes In FV
Should be recognized in period FV changed
35
Qualified Derivatives can be used to hedge cash flow of what?
assets and forcasted transactions
36
Cash flow hedges: Effective/Non-Effective Portion
Gains/Losses on Effective portion = OCI -must be reclassified and recognized in income during the period in which the hedged items affect income Gains/Losses on Non-Effective portion = Current Income
37
FV and Speculative Cash Flows Derivatives: Gains/Losses
Flow to the income statement
38
Foreign Currency Exchange: Historical Exchange Rates
Historical exchange rates are used for items like: Inventory carried on the B/S at cost
39
Functional Currency for Foreign F/S:
If a subsidiary's functional currency isn't their local currency then: The F/S have to be "re-measured" into its functional currency. (gain/loss flows to income - part of continuing operations)
40
Functional Currency = Local Currency (non-inflationary economy)
Current Rate is used to translate currencies -I/S account used WA Exchange Rate for the year
41
Conversion Adjustments: Translation Gains/losses vs Financial Statement Remeasurement
Translation gains/losses flow to OCI Financial Statement Re-measurement flows to I/S
42
Translating from Foreign Currency: APIC and C/S
Translated using Historical Exchange Rates
43
IFRS Exchange Rates: Which rates to compare in a transaction for gain/loss at YE
Rate at delivery of goods vs Rate at YE = Gain/Loss
44
Income Taxes: Permanent vs Temporary Differences
Book Income minus: Permanent include: -Tax Exempt Municipal Bonds -Insurance proceeds from death of officer -Penalties paid for legal obligations +Insurance Premiums paid for officers =Income Before Taxes and Temporary Differences Temporary include: -Excess Tax Depreciation +Rent received =Taxable Income When subtracting these differences, subtract total amount not "net of tax"
45
DTL: Computation
Net of: Future taxable amounts (temporary differences) - DTL and Future deductible amounts (long-term loss accrual) -DTA
46
Income Tax Liability: Note
Whenever income is reported in the financials before it is reported as taxable income you must: Report a deferred tax liability
47
Reversal of Current Temporary Differences will result in what?
- Deferred tax deduction (deferred tax asset = future savings) - Deferred taxable amount (deferred tax liability = future tax payments)
48
Tax Provision: Calculation
=Book income - (temporary/permanent differences) then - Estimated tax payments made = Current tax liability
49
Book Basis vs Tax Basis: Assets
Book Basis > Tax Basis = Deferred Tax Liability
50
DTA vs DTL for expenses:
Tax Record of expense > Book Expense = DTL -Future Tax Liability Tax Record of expense < Book Expense = DTA -Future Tax Deduction NOTE: Use "future enacted tax rate"
51
Ending Balance in DTA:
Total Balance at YE - Allowance (amount not to be realized) = Net Ending - Beg Balance = Balance (reduces tax expense)
52
Temporary Difference: Definition
When an asset/liability is recognized in GAAP income before or after it is entered into taxable income.
53
Temporary Differences: DTL/DTA
Only temporary differences create DTL/DTA
54
Operating Income: Income Taxes
Not shown "net of tax" on I/S (intra-period income tax allocation)
55
DTL - DTA = Does what to tax expense?
Increases/Decreases Income Tax Expense
56
Valuation Allowance: What do they affect?
Only affect DTA. NOTE: Change in the opening balance because of a change in circumstances is shown in "income from operations"
57
Interim Tax Expense: What rate to be used?
Use estimated "annual tax rate" to calculate quarter tax expense
58
Interim Tax Expense: Calculation
(YTD Income * Annual Effective Tax Rate) - Income Tax Expense from Previous Quarter
59
DTL Calculation:
=Future enacted tax rate * future taxable amounts (temporary differences)
60
When calculating DTL/DTA: What tax rate do you use?
Rate used when the temporary difference will reverse.
61
Temporary Difference for Year 1 (reversed in year 2): Calculated using what rate?
Enacted Tax for Year 1
62
Losses carried forward that reduce tax payables should be recorded where (the benefit from the loss)?
Income from continuing operations.
63
Net operating loss carry-forward and its effect on NI:
Net Operating losses can't be recognized in year of loss. The deferred asset should be reduced by a "valuation allowance"
64
Depreciation or other temporary difference reversing evenly over the next XX years: Calculation
= (Total Temporary Difference / #of years) * Enacted Tax Rate for each year
65
Tax Expense and NOLs
If total Income Tax Expense > NOL = Recognize the entire NOL that year (net of tax)
66
Loss Carry Back vs Carry Forward
Carry Back = "Tax Fund Receivable" | Carry Forward = "DTA"
67
Income Taxes: Equity Earnings Calculation
Book: Equity in Earnings -Dividends Received Deduction (% of earnings deducted) =Book Total Tax: 0 in Equity Earnings - Dividends Received from Investee - Dividends Received Deduction (% of dividends received from investee (same used for book)) =Tax Total = (Book Total - Tax Total) = Temporary Difference (*Tax Rate) - taxable in the future
68
Temporary vs Permanent Differences: NOTE
Must subtract permanent differences before temporary ones
