CHAPTER 9
FINANCE LEASE – LESSOR
QUESTION 9-1
Contrast a sales-type lease from a direct financing lease.
ANSWER 9-1
Lessors classify a finance lease either as sales-type or direct financing lease.
1. The primary difference is the recognition of a manufacturer or dealer profit.
The sales-type lease recognizes a manufacturer or dealer profit. The direct financing lease does
not.
2. Both sales-type and direct financing lease recognize interest income or financial revenue.
QUESTION 9-2
Explain the following in connection with a “direct financing lease”:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Gross investment
Net investment in the lease
Unearned interest income
Initial direct cost
ANSWER 9-2
1. Gross investment in the lease
The gross investment in the lease is equal to the gross rentals for the entire lease term plus the
absolute amount of the residual value, whether guaranteed or unguaranteed. Actually, this is
the amount debited to lease receivable.
2. Net investment in the lease
The net investment in the lease is equal to the cost of the asset plus any initial direct cost
incurred by the lessor.
3. Unearned interest income
The unearned interest income is the total financial revenue of the lessor which is the difference
between the gross investment and net investment in the lease.
4. Initial direct cost
In a direct financing lease, the initial direct cost incurred by the lessor is added to the cost of
the asset to get the net investment in the lease.
This would effectively spread the initial direct cost over the lease term and reduce the amount
of interest income.
Accordingly, the interest rate implicit in the lease is recomputed so as to include the initial
direct cost in the measurement of the lease receivable.
QUESTION 9-3
Explain the following in connection with a “sales type lease”.
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
Gross investment
Net investment in the lease
Unearned interest income
Sales
Cost of sales
Gross profit
Initial direct cost
ANSWER 9-3
1. Gross investment – this is equal to the gross rentals for the entire lease term plus the
absolute amount of the residual value, whether guaranteed or unguaranteed.
Recall that this is the same definition of gross investment in a direct financing lease.
2. Net investment in the lease – This is equal to the present value of the gross rentals plus
the present value of the residual value, whether guaranteed or unguaranteed.
3. Unearned interest income – This is the total financial revenue of the lessor which is the
difference between the gross investment and net investment in the lease.
4. Sales – The amount is equal to the net investment in the lease or fair value of the asset,
whichever is lower.
5. Cost of sales – This is equal to the cost of asset sold plus the initial direct cost incurred by
the lessor.
6. Gross profit – This is the usual formula of sales minus cost of sales.
7. Initial direct cost – This amount is expensed immediately in a sales type lease as
component of cost of sales.
QUESTION 9-4
Explain the “actual sale” of the leased asset by the lessor to the lessee.
ANSWER 9-4
When a lessor actually sells an asset that it has been leasing under a finance lease, the
difference between the sale price and the carrying amount of the lease receivable is
recognized in profit or loss.
The carrying amount of the lease receivable is equal to the balance of the lease receivable
minus the unearned interest income.
