1Leases I. Background Information A. Parties to Lease Contract
1. Lessee Party using the property and paying the lease payments 2.
Lessor Legal owner of property who receives the lease payments B.
Business Purpose for Lessee 1. Minimize capital resources needed 2.
Tax advantages 3. Protection against obsolescence 4. Secure
off-balance sheet financing 5. Avoid violating debt covenants 2I.
C. Types of Leases 1. Operating Lease a. Involves mere use of
property b. Short-term in duration relative to useful life c.
Example - Lease storage space on a year-to-year contract d. Lessee
Accounting i. Record asset if prepay rent ii. Record rent expense
as incurred iii. Asset not recorded on balance sheet e. Lessor
Accounting i. Record liability if collect rent in advance ii.
Record rent income as earned iii. Record depreciation on asset
3I. C. Types of Leases (continued) 2. Capital Lease a. Transfers
substantially all of the benefits andrisks of ownership to Lessee
b. Is in substance similar to an installment purchase by Lessee c.
Duration is often all (or nearly all) of assets economic life d.
Lessee Accounting (installment purchase) - i. Record leased asset
as PPE ii.Record depreciation expense on leased asset iii. Record
liability for present value of lease payments iv.Record interest
expense related to liability 4I. C. Types of Leases (continued) 2.
Capital Lease (continued) e.Lessor Accounting (installment sale) -
i. Remove asset from balance sheet ii.Record receivable for
leasepayments iii. Record interest income earned on outstanding
receivable iv.If fair value of asset exceeds cost of assetat lease
inception then record gross profiton sale of asset 5I. D.
Terminology 1. Executory Costs Costs associated with the leased
property including a. Maintenance b. Taxes c. Insurance Note: The
lease contract will usually specify The party responsible (bears
expense) for these costs. The party who pays (disburses) cash for
these costs. 2. Asset Economic Life a. Total Economic life of asset
when new b. Remaining Economic life of asset at start of the lease
Note: If lease involves a new asset then Total Life = Remaining
Life6I.D. 3. Lease Payments a. Payments that areset forth in the
lease contract i. Required ii.Optional iii. Contingent b. Possible
Components Always Present in Contract i. Rental Payment Payment for
use of property Sometimes Present in Contract
ii. Executory costs Payment to reimburse lessor for executory
costs that are lessees responsibility under the lease contract iii.
Penalty Amount Payment required by the lease contract if the lessee
does not extend or renew the lease iv. Purchase Option Payment
lessee can make to purchase the property7I.D.3.b. Possible
Components (of lease payments) v. Residual Value Deficiency Lease
contract may require the lessee to make up (pay cash) any
difference between the actual value of the property at the end of
the lease and a guaranteed value specified in the lease contract 2
types of deficiencies Due to normal use (treated as part of lease
cost) Due to damage, extraordinary wear and tear, or excessive use
(treated as period cost when paid) Note: The guaranteed value
specified in the contract may not be the full expected residual
value at the end of the lease. In this case, part of the expected
residual value is Guaranteed and part is Unguaranteed.
8II. Classification of Lease for Lessee A. General Issues
Regarding Lessee Classification 1. To qualify as a Capital Lease
some portion of the Lease Term must be Noncancelable 2. GAAP
specifies 4 tests that are designed to indicate if a Noncancelable
lease is really an installment purchase (a capital lease) 3. Tests
are applied as of lease inception (date of lease contract) 4. If at
least 1 test is met Lease is treated as a Capital Lease 5. If none
of the tests are met Lease is treated as an Operating Lease 6.
Tests 1 and 2 a. Are always reliable b. Apply to all types of
property i. Land ii.Buildings and Equipment 9II.A. General Issues
Regarding Lessee Classification 7. Tests 3 and 4 Not always useful
a. Land i. Tests 3 and 4 are not useful for evaluating a lease
where land is a Material component of the leased property Material
= More than 25% of value ofleased property ii. So before tests 3
and 4 are used we always check to see if the lease involves land,
and if so we calculate the value of the land relative to the total
value of the leased property b. Buildings and Equipment i. Tests 3
and 4 are considered unreliable if the lease begins in the last 25%
of the assetstotal economic life ii. So before tests 3 and 4 are
used we alwayscheck to be sure lease does not begin in last 25% of
assets total economic life 10II.A.7.b. Buildings and Equipment iii.
Example ABC Co. leases a building with a life of 100 yrs 17576
100
25 years Lease Begins at Start of Year Does Lease Begin in Last
25% of Assets Total Life? 1No 75No Last 26% 76Yes Exactly Last 25%
100Yes 11II. B.Lessee Classification Tests 1. Test 1: Does lease
transfer ownership to lesseeby the end of the Lease Term ? a. Yes =
Capital Lease b. Nominal fee may be required to cover legal fees
and taxes 2. Test 2: Does the lease contain aBargain Purchase
Option? a. Yes = Capital Lease b. Bargain Purchase Option Lease
contract contains an option that permits purchase of the property
at a bargain price (below expected fair value) and at lease
inception Lessee exercise of this option appears reasonably
assured. Note: This test really asks the following Does the lease
contain a purchase option that seems reasonably assured of
exercise?12II. B.Lessee Classification Tests 3. Test 3:Is the
following condition met? Lease Term 75% of asset remaining economic
life at lease inception a. Yes = Capital Lease 4. Test 4:Is the
following condition met? PresentMinimum .90 xFMV -ITCValue Lease
Payments Fair Market ValueInvestment Tax at lease inceptionCredit
Retained by Lessor a. Yes = Capital Lease 13II. B.Lessee
Classification Tests Question:Why are tests 3 and 4 not appropriate
for land? Answer:To be considered a purchase in substance the
lessee must secure substantially all of the benefits of ownership.
Since land has an unlimited life,the Lessee must assume ownership
of the land to secure substantially all of the benefits of
ownership (e.g. meets test 1 or test 2). Question:Why are tests 3
and 4 not appropriate for buildings and equipment when the lease
begins in the last 25% of the assets total economic life? Answer:To
be considered a purchase in substance the lessee must secure
substantially all of the benefits of ownership. But if the asset is
in its last 25% of useful life, the lessee does not
securesubstantially all of the benefits ofownership even though
test 3 or test 4are met.14II. C.Lease Term 1. Sum of the following
periods a. Fixed Noncancelable term b. Periods covered by bargain
renewal options (bargain = renewal is reasonably assured) c.
Periods covered by a penalty for nonrenewal where penalty appears
sufficient to concludethatrenewal is reasonably assured d. Periods
covered by ordinary renewal optionsduring which the Lessee has
guaranteed thedebt of the Lessor which is related to the leased
property e. Periods covered by ordinary renewal options preceding
the date at which aBargain Purchase Option can be exercised Note:
The idea is to estimate the length of time that we can be
reasonably sure thatthe lease will be in effect. 15II.C. Lease Term
(continued) 2. Noncancelable means a. Can be canceled only upon the
occurrence of some remote contingency, or b. Can be canceled with
permission of Lessor, or c. Can be canceled if the Lessee enters
into a new lease with the Lessor, or d. Can be canceled if a
penalty is paid, but thepenalty is of sufficient magnitude
thatcontinuation of lease appears reasonably assured. 3. Limit on
Lease Term Estimated Lease Term cannot exceed the length of time
from lease inception to the date that a Bargain Purchase Option (if
any) can be exercised. 16II.C. Lease Term (continued) 4. Example a.
Facts Jones Co. leases equipment under a contract with the
following terms Initial noncancelable term of 2 years @ $100 each
year Lease can be renewed for 1 additional year @ $60 If lease is
not renewed lessee must pay a penalty of $50 b. Lease Term If
penalty for nonrenewal is sufficient to ensure renewal then Lease
Term = 3 years (2 + 1) If penalty for nonrenewal is not sufficient
to ensure renewal then Lease Term = 2 years (2 + 0) 17II.D. Present
Value of Minimum Lease Payments 1. Concept Present value of the
minimum consideration the Lessor will receiveduring the course of
the lease [ abbreviated as: PV(MLP) ] Note:Consideration can be: o
Cash payments made, and o Guaranteed value of property returned to
Lessor 2. Components - a. Consideration required under contract
i.Rent (but exclude executory costs, if any)
b. Consideration contingent on future events and/or Lessee
decisions but reasonably assured at lease inception i. Purchase
option ii.Penalty for nonrenewal iii. Guaranteed residual value
18II.D. Present Value of Minimum Lease Payments 3. Discount Rate
used by Lessee a. General Rule Use Lessee Incrementalborrowing rate
Note:Incremental Rate is the rate that Lessee could actually secure
if money were borrowed and the asset was purchased for cash
b. Exception Use Lessor implicit rate if i.Known to Lessee and
ii. Lessor implicit rate < Lessee incremental rate
Note: Implicit Rate is the Lessors rate of return earned on the
leased asset. It is also the rate that results in: PV(MLP) +
PV(UGR) = Asset Fair Value MLP= Minimum Lease Payments UGR=
Unguaranteed Residual Valueto Lessor 19II.D. Present Value of
Minimum Lease Payments 4. Calculation Details (sum of following
components) a. PV (Net Rental Payments for Lease Term ) Net Rental
=Gross Rental Executory Costsincluded in Gross Rental b. PV
(Bargain Purchase Option)(if payment is reasonably assured) c. PV
(Penalty for Nonrenewal)(if payment is reasonably assured) d. PV
(Guaranteed Residual Value to Lessor) (if property expected to be
returned to Lessor)
Note:Including a Bargain Purchase Option precludes both the
Penalty for Nonrenewal and the Guaranteed Residual Value Reason If
Lessee buys the property there is no need to renew the lease or
guarantee a residual to the Lessor So can have: {a}, {a,b}, {a,c},
{a,d}, {a,c,d} Cannot have: {a,b,c}, {a,b,d}, {a,b,c,d} 20II.D.
Present Value of Minimum Lease Payments 5. Example a. Facts Lease
begins Jan. 1, 19X1 Initial noncancelable term of 2 years
Rent =$120 each year made on Jan. 1
Rental payment includes $20 that is reimbursement of insurance
paid by Lessor on behalf of Lessee Lease can be renewed for 1
additional year @ $60 If lease is not renewed lessee must pay a
penalty of $50 at end of year 2 (Dec. 31) At lease inception Lessee
does not expect to extend lease to year 3 (so Lessee expects to pay
penalty) Lessee Incremental Rate is 10% and Lessors Implicit Rate
is unknown No guaranteed residual value or purchase option 21II.D.

Note: If asset is recorded at a lower fair value amount, the
discount rate used in the amortization schedule is adjusted to
force the ending liability balance to 0. Question: Does the
discount rate go up or down? Answer: With less principal to pay,
but total payments remaining the same, this means that the total of
interest paid must increase. Hence, the discount rate must be
increased to a higher number. 25IV. Journal Entries for Lessee

Leases Involving Land A. General Concepts 1. If Land is immaterial
part of leased asset we ignore the fact that land is present
Material 25% of leased property value at lease inception 2. If Land
is material, we separate land from other part of property, then
account for each part of leased property separately Lease of land
can be a capital lease only if Test 1 or Test 2 is met So Lessee
must be expected to become legal owner of the land 63X. Leases
