On December 31, 2018, Yard Art Landscaping leased a delivery truck from Branch Motors. Branch paid $36,000 for the truck. Its retail value is $49,355.
The lease agreement specified annual payments of $12,000 beginning December 31, 2018, the beginning of the lease, and at each December 31 through 2021. Branch Motors’ interest rate for determining payments was 10%. At the end of the four-year lease term (December 31, 2022) the truck was expected to be worth $11,000. The estimated useful life of the truck is five years with no salvage value. Both companies use straight-line amortization or depreciation.
Yard Art guaranteed a residual value of $7,000. Yard Art’s incremental borrowing rate is 7% and is unaware of Branch’s implicit rate.
Required:
1) How should this lease be classified by Yard Art Landscaping

2) Calculate the amount Yard Art Landscaping would record as a
right-of-use asset and a lease liability.
3) How should this lease be classified by Branch Motors (the
lessor)?
4) Show how Branch Motors calculated the $12,000 annual lease
payments.
5) Calculate the amount Branch Motors would record as sales
revenue.
6) Prepare the appropriate entries for both Yard Art and Branch

The amount Yard Art Landscaping would record
Right of use (Leased asset) =
The time value factor for an ordinary annuity at 7% for 3 periods is 2.624
The asset and liability will be recorded by multiplying the annual lease payment by the present value factor
12000 + 12000*2.624 = 43488

This lease should be classified as financial lease
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Calculation of annual lease payment
PV of Outflow = PV of Inflow
Let x is the annual lease payment
The time value factor for an ordinary annuity at 10% for 3 periods is 2.487
49355 = (x + x*2.487) + 11000*0.683
49355 = 3.487x + 7513
x = 12000
