For this finance lease, the manufacturer-lessor should record
1. As gross investment, the minimum lease payments because there
2. As net investment, the difference between the gross investment in the lease and unearned finance incomea credit to a liability)
3. As unearned finance income the difference between the gross investmentgross investment discounted at the interest rate implicit in the lease)
4. As sales revenue the fair value of the asset o if lower, the present value payments computed at the interest rate implicit in the lease
5. As cost of goods sold, the cost of the leased asset Because the first payment is made at the inception ofthe lease. the payment structure is that of annuity due. Sales revenue is therefore equal to the US $10.000 periodic payment times the present value of an annuity due of I discounted for 10 years at 10%US $10, 000 6.7590 = US $67, 590). Given that cash is paid at the beginning of the year, the initial 10.000 cash debit immediately decreases the gross investment in the leaselease payments receivable) from US $100, 000 to US $90, 000. The cost of the leased assetUS $55, 000) must also be charged to cost of sales and credited to inventory. Finally, at the inception of the lease, unearned finance income equals the difference between the gross investment and the sales priceUS $100, 000 ax$67, 590 = US 632, 410).
