Calculation of present value of total annual payments |
lease type= capital lease |
Annual Lease payment = $ 25000.00 |
interest rate = $ 10 |
lease term = 20 years |
present value of total lease value = annuity value for 20 years@10%*$ 25000 |
8.1536*25000 |
$203,840 |
so in this total liability |
first year ending balance |
interest = $ 203840*10%= $ 20384 |
instalment= $ 25000 |
principle repayment = $ 4616 |
closing balance = $ 203840-$ 4616= $ 199224 |
Second year ending Balance as on December 31,2021 |
interest = $ 199224*10%= $ 19922.4 |
instalment= $ 25000 |
principle repayment = $ 5077.6 |
closing balance = $ 199224-$ 5077.6= $ 194146.4 |
so balance in the lease liability account on December 31,2021= $ 194146.4 |
Third year ending Balance as on December 31,2022 |
interest = $ 194146.4*10%= $ 19414.64 |
instalment= $ 25000 |
principle repayment = $ 5585.36 |
closing balance = $ 194146.64-$5585.36= $ 188561.28 |
so balance in the lease liability account on December 31,2022= $ 188561.28 |
