Q

If the gain is in between, what is the accounting?

A

Defer gain and recognize over the lease term

Ie sales lease 900k
Cv 300k
MLP = 450k

Implied Gain = 900-300 =600
Normal gain compare sales and MLP = 450

The 600-450= 150 recognized immediately, and the rest (450) will be amortized over its lease term.

17
Q

Calculation of Losses and its accounting treatment

A

Loss can be artificial or real
Artificial is the sales price is purposely lower than FV, so it can recognize loss

When FV = SP,
Real is when FV BV, any loss recorded is deferred and amortized
When loss is amortized, the capital expense is increased

22
Q

If giving annual lease payment for lesser and the lease term, how to calculate lessor’s lease receivable and interest unearned revenue?

What about for sales lease?

Lease interest revenue is sales lease receivable - MLR - PV of BPO or RV

COGS: lease receivable - interest revenue - equipment - sales (same as lessee recorded liability)
