Royals Incorporated leases a piece of equipment to Polar Corporation on January 1, 2020. The lease agreement called for annual rental payments of $8,648 at the beginning of each year of the 3-year lease. The equipment has a fair value of $35,000, a book value of $20,000, and an economic useful life of 5 years after which the residual value will be zero. Both parties expect a residual value of $12,500 at the end of the lease term, though this amount is not guaranteed. Royals set the lease payments with the intent of earning a 6% return, and Polar is aware of this rate. There is no bargain purchase option, ownership of the lease does not transfer at the end of the lease term, and the asset is not of a specialized nature.

Instructions:

(Round all numbers to the nearest dollar.)

(a) Describe the nature of the lease to both Royals and Polar.

(b) Prepare the lease amortization schedule(s) for Polar for all 3 years of the lease.

(c) Prepare the journal entries for Polar for 2020 and 2021.

Collins Corporation purchased office equipment at the beginning of 2019 and capitalized a cost of $2,072,000. This cost figure included the following expenditures: Purchase price $ 1,910,000 Freight charges 36,000 Installation charges 26,000 Annual maintenance charge 100,000 Total $ 2,072,000 The company estimated an eight-year useful life for the equipment. No residual value is anticipated. The double-declining-balance method was used to determine depreciation expense for 2019 and 2020. In 2021, after the 2020 financial statements were issued, the company decided to switch to the straight-line depreciation method for this equipment. At that time, the company’s controller discovered that the original cost of the equipment incorrectly included one year of annual maintenance charges for the equipment. Required: 1. Ignoring income taxes, prepare the appropriate correcting entry for the equipment capitalization error discovered in 2021. 2. Ignoring income taxes, prepare any 2021 journal entry(s) related to the change in depreciation methods.

Accounting for Dilutive securities and Earning per share.

On November 1, 2017, Larkspur Company adopted a stock-option plan that granted options to key executives to purchase 30,000 shares of the company’s $10 par value common stock. The options were granted on January 2, 2018, and were exercisable 2 years after the date of grant if the grantee was still an employee of the company. The options expired 6 years from date of grant. The option price was set at $30, and the fair value option-pricing model determines the total compensation expense to be $450,000.

All of the options were exercised during the year 2020: 20,000 on January 3 when the market price was $69, and 10,000 on May 1 when the market price was $78 a share.

Prepare journal entries relating to the stock option plan for the years 2018, 2019, and 2020. Assume that the employee performs services equally in 2018 and 2019.
