The lease consists of the following Date of inception: Duration of lease: Life of leased asset: Lease payments (annual) 4 years 5 years $160,000 (annual) includes $15,000 for . maintenance and insurance costs per annum $70,000 (added to final payment Implicit rate of interest is 11.5% (is this the actual rate?)

(4 marks) b) Do the journal entries for the Lessor (using the Net Method) for acquisition, transfer of control, annual payments (2013 and 2014) and for final payment (2016) (9 marks) Explain the difference between a Finance lease and an Operating lease (2 marks) c)

Explanation / Answer

a) Against the Fair Value, implicit rate would be correct, if the present value of cash-flows net of cost received equals Fair Value of equipment, when discounted using implicit rate. So, we need to calculate present value of all cash-flows.

Cash-flow net of cost = $160,000 - $15,000 = $145,000

Formulas:

Present value of equal periodic cash-flow = C*{[1-(1+r)-n] / r}
Present value of single cash flow = Cash Flow / (1+r)n

Present Value of annual payment = $145,000*{[1-(1+0.115)-4] / 0.115} = $445,094
Present Value of addition to final payment = $70,000 / (1+0.115)4 = $45,290

Net Present Value = $445,094 + $45,290 = $490,384

Since the present value is equal to the Fair Value, the implicit rate is correct.

C) In a “Finance Lease”, the risk of owning the asset gets transferred to the lessee and the lessee assumes all these risks. On the other hand, in an “Operating Lease”, all these risks remain with the lessor.
