Rumsfeld Corporation leased a machine on December 31, 2018, for a three-year period. The lease agreement calls for annual payments in the amount of $17,500 on December 31 of each year beginning on December 31, 2018. Rumsfeld has the option to purchase the machine on December 31, 2021, for $21,500 when its fair value is expected to be $31,500. The machine's estimated useful life is expected to be five years with no residual value. The appropriate interest rate for this lease is 8%.
  


Required:
1. Calculate the amount to be recorded as a right-of-use asset and the associated lease liability.
2. Prepare an amortization schedule for this lease.

n/i PV of $1 PV, ordinary annuity PV, annuity due 1 period, 8% 0.92593 0.92593 1.00000 2 periods, 8% 0.85734 1.78326 1.92593 3 periods, 8% 0.79383 2.57710 2.78326

Explanation / Answer

1)amount to be recorded as a right-of-use asset and the associated lease liability =[PVAD8%,3*Annual payment ]+[PVF8%,3*purchase price]

     =[2.78326*17500]+[.79383*21500]

    = 48707.05+ 17067.35

    =$ 65774.40   [Rounded to 65774]
