World of Leasing Limited (WLL) is trying to determine the lease payment it should quote for the construction trucks it is considering purchasing for leasing. Assume that each truck costs $200,000, has a 5 year useful life and a CCA rate of 50%. Before tax operating cost of the truck is $50,000 per year paid by the owner (lessor) of the asset. The corporate tax rate is 40%, before tax cost of debt is 8%, and risk free rate is 4%. Cost of capital is 10%. CCA tax shield will be claimed at the end of the year and the lease payment and operating costs will be at the beginning of the year.

a. Determine the annual lease payment if the resale value of the truck is $60,000 after 5 years. Assume asset pool is open.

b. Determine the annual lease payment if the resale value of the truck is $60,000 after 5 years. Assume asset pool is closed.

c. Continuing with b) above, suppose OnlyLease Inc. (OLI) has a corporate tax rate of 0%, cost of debt is 8%, and cost of capital is 12%. What is the maximum lease payment OLI would be willing to make?

d. Within what range of values WLL and OLI can make a deal?

Splish Corp. has 150,240 shares of common stock outstanding. In 2020, the company reports income from continuing operations before income tax of $1,210,400. Additional transactions not considered in the $1,210,400 are as follows.

1. In 2020, Splish Corp. sold equipment for $38,300. The machine had originally cost $83,600 and had accumulated depreciation of $31,900. The gain or loss is considered non-recurring.
2. The company discontinued operations of one of its subsidiaries during the current year at a loss of $191,500 before taxes. Assume that this transaction meets the criteria for discontinued operations. The loss from operations of the discontinued subsidiary was $90,100 before taxes; the loss from disposal of the subsidiary was $101,400 before taxes.
3. An internal audit discovered that amortization of intangible assets was understated by $38,400 (net of tax) in a prior period. The amount was charged against retained earnings.
4. The company recorded a non-recurring gain of $125,400 on the condemnation of some of its property (included in the $1,210,400).


Analyze the above information and prepare an income statement for the year 2020, starting with income from continuing operations before income tax. Compute earnings per share as it should be shown on the face of the income statement. (Assume a total effective tax rate of 19% on all items, unless otherwise indicated.) (Round earnings per share to 2 decimal places, e.g. 1.47.)
