On June 30, 2021, Georgia-Atlantic, Inc. leased a warehouse equipment from IC Leasing Corporation. The lease agreement calls for Georgia-Atlantic to make semiannual lease payments of $677,829 over a four-year lease term, payable each June 30 and December 31, with the first payment at June 30, 2021. Georgia-Atlantic's incremental borrowing rate is 10%, the same rate IC uses to calculate lease payment amounts. Amortization is recorded on a straight-line basis at the end of each fiscal year. The fair value of the equipment is $4.6 million. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) (Use appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) Required: 1. Determine the present value of the lease payments at June 30, 2021 that Georgia-Atlantic uses to record the right-of-use asset and lease liability. 2. What pretax amounts related to the lease would Georgia-Atlantic report in its balance sheet at December 31, 2021

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Solution to Part 1:

Present Value of Lease payments:

Total Semiannual Periods (4*2) = 8

Incremental Borrowing Rate (10%/2) = 5%

Semi-annual lease payment = $677829

Cumulative PV factor for annuity due at 5% for 6 periods = 6.786373

So,

Present Value of Lease payments = $677829 x  6.786373

Present Value of Lease payments = $4600000

Solution to Part 2:

Pretax Amount of Liability At December 31:

Present Value of Lease payments = $4600000

Add: Interest expense [(4600000-677829)*5%] = 196109

less: Payments (semiannual payment x 2) = 1355658

Pretax Amount of Liability = 3440451

Pretax Amount of Asset At December 31:

Value of Asset = 4600000

Less: Depreciation (Value of Asset/ Semiannual periods)  = 575000

So,

Pretax Amount of Asset = 4600000 - 575000

Pretax Amount of Asset =  4025000
