Q

How do you calculate the initial JE for Operating lease for lessee?

A

Annual lease pymts X applicable PV factor based on implicit interest rate (will be given).

Example: Leasing equip. 10 yrs, implicit rate 8%. FMV asset is $100K, w/useful life of 20 yrs. Annual lease pymts is $12K. PV factor annuity due for 10 yrs at 8% is 7.25.

12K X 7.25 = 87K (to capitalize)

DR ROU Asset 87K, CR Lease Liab 87K (to capitalize)
DR Lease Liab 12K, CR Cash 12K (first pymt)

87K - 12K = 75K X 8% = 6K (interest #1 at YE #1)

DR Lease Exp 12K, CR ROU Asset 6K, CR Lease Liab 6K

75K - 6K = 69K x 8% = 5,520 (interest #2 at YE #2)…

Q

How do you calculate the initial JE for Finance lease for lessor?

A

Doing reverse of lessee, take FV of equip. +/- GRV/NGRV and dividing by PV factor.

If PV of minimum lease pymts is > FMV at beginning of lease, then amount of leased asset & obligation will be equal to FV of leased asset.
