Question

On January 1, 20X1, Tucker Company leases equipment from Franz Inc. over three years of the equipment's five-year estimated useful life. Franz acquired the asset for $431,213 and normally utilizes an 8% interest rate for these types of transactions. The present value of the lease payments is $357,710. The annual lease payment is $100,000; the first payment is due on January 1, 20X1. Tucker should recognize the second lease payment by debiting (round to the nearest whole dollar and select all that apply)

Answer 1

Lease payable for $79,383

Interest expense for $20,617

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for the amount that Tucker should recognize the second lease payment

Calculation for Lease payable

Lease payable =$100,000-($357,710-$100,000)*8%

Lease payable =$100,000-($257,710*8%)

Lease payable =$100,000-$20,617

Lease payable =$79,383

Calculation for Interest expense

Interest expense =( $357,710-$100,000)*8%

Interest expense =$257,710*8%

Interest expense =$20,617

Therefore Tucker should recognize the second lease payment by debiting:

Lease payable for $79,383

Interest expense for $20,617
