Cullumber Company, a machinery dealer, leased a machine to Dexter Corporation on January 1, 2020. The lease is for an 8-year period and requires equal annual payments of $ 25,300 at the beginning of each year. The first payment is received on January 1, 2020. Cullumber had purchased the machine during 2019 for $ 170,000. Collectibility of lease payments by Cullumber is probable. Cullumber set the annual rental to ensure a 8% rate of return. The machine has an economic life of 10 years with no residual value and reverts to Cullumber at the termination of the lease. Assume that Dexter Corporation does not know the rate implicit in the lease used by Cullumber, and Dexter’s incremental borrowing rate is 10%. In addition, assume that Dexter incurs initial direct costs of $ 18,000. A. Compute the amount of the lease liability and right-of-use asset for Dexter.
B. Prepare all necessary journal entries for Dexter for 2020. (record lease, Record first payment, record interest expense, record amortization of right of use asset)
