Accounting for Leases – Lessee perspective

Deliveries Ltd leased a truck from a truck dealer, City Vans Ltd. City Vans Ltd acquired the truck at a cost of $180,000. The truck will be painted with Deliveries Ltd’s logo and advertising and the cost of repainting the truck to make it suitable for another owner four years later is estimated to be $40,000.

Life of leased asset: 5 years (after which there is no salvage value)

Lease payments: $100,000 at the end of each year

Interest rate implicit in the lease: 10%

Unguaranteed residual: $50,000

Fair value of truck at inception of lease: $351,140

  2. Demonstrate that the interest rate implicit in the lease is 10%
