Solution
Here , for calculation of present value of minimum lease payments,
PV = Sum of [P/(1+r)^n] + [RV/(1+r)^n]
where,
Where PV = Present Value, P = Annual Lease Payments, r = Interest rate, n = number of years in the lease term and RV = residual value
Since , the annual payment is made on the begining of each year , value of \'n\' for each year = year -1.
i.e for 1st year , n= 1-1=0 , for 2nd year , n= 2-1 =1 and so on.
P = $ 8482 , useful life = 6 years , RV = $5,000 ( at the end of 6th year), r= 9%
PV = 8482/ (1.09)^0 + 8482/ (1.09)^1 +8482/ (1.09)^2+8482/ (1.09)^3+8482/ (1.09)^4+8482/ (1.09)^5 + 5000/ (1.09)^6
=$ 44455.36 = $ 44455.
PV = $ 44455.
Answer )
YEARLY depreciation = (Value - RV )/ year = (44455 - 5000)/6 = $6576.
ENTRY in books
Note : as lease payment is made in begining , so no interest has been charged for the year.
