Question 2 (Lease with initial direct costs – from lessor’s perspective)
On January 1, 2023, Copper Leasing Company leased equipment to Crystal Corporation for a 6-
year period, at which time possession of the leased equipment will revert back to Copper Leasing
Company. The lease is noncancelable. The lease terms do not provide for transfer of legal title,
do not contain a bargain purchase option, and do not require the lessee to guarantee a residual
value. Initial direct costs of negotiating and consummating the completed lease transaction
incurred by Copper Leasing Company on January 1, 2023 were $13,000. The equipment, which
has expected useful life of 6 years and expected residual value of $20,000, cost Copper Leasing
Company $275,000 to manufacture. Its normal sales price was $390,000 on January 1, 2023.
Equal payments under the lease are $68,045 and are due on January 1 of each year. The first
payment was made on January 1, 2023. Collectibility of the remaining lease payments is
reasonably assured, and Copper Leasing Company has no material cost uncertainties. Crystal’s
incremental borrowing rate is 6%. Crystal knows that the interest rate implicit in the leasing
payments is 4%. Both companies use straight-line depreciation.
