Lessor Concerns ?????
Receivable & residual approach Lease receivable for right to receive lease payments Allocate book value of asset between leased portion and retained (residual) portion Asset BV x Lease receivable/FV of Asset = Derecognition Amount Profit = Lease receivable – Derecognition Amount Residual is accreted
Example A lessor manufactures a machine for $7,500 and enters into a 3- year lease with annual payments due at the end of the year of $2,400. The machine’s fair value is $10,000 at lease commencement with an estimated residual value at the end of the three years of $4,770. The implicit lease rate is 7.9%, and the present value of the lease payments is $6,200. Asset BV x lease receivable/FV of asset = derecognition amount $7,500 x $6,200/$10,000 = $4,650 (derecognition amount) $7,500 - $4,650 = $2,850 (allocated residual amount) Lease receivable – derecognition amount = profit at commencement $6,200 - $4,650 = $1,550 (profit at commencement)
Practice Issues Loan with balloon Sales-type lease Receivable and residual Receivable $ 6,200 Balloon/residual $ 3,800 $ 2,850 Net investment$ 10,000 $ 9,050
Practice Issues Loan with balloon Sales-type lease Receivable and residual Finance income $ 1,970 $ 1,727 Sales profit $ 2,500 $ 2,743 Net investment$ 4,470
