Wittaler [7]

Answer:

January $151,575

February $248,675

March $305,525

Explanation:

The computation of the cash collections is shown below:

January month

= January credit sales × month of sale collection percentage

= $202,100 × 75%

= $151,575

February month

= January credit sales × following month collection percentage + February credit sales  × month of sale collection percentage

= $202,100 × 25% + $264,200 × 75%

= $50,525 + $198,150

= $248,675

March month

= February credit sales × following month collection percentage + February credit sales  × month of sale collection percentage

=  $264,200 × 25%+ $319,300 × 75%

= $66,050 + $239,475

= $305,525

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

1. Why is this an operating lease for Child Company?

The life of the asset is 10 years while the lease is only 3 years long, so it cannot be classified as a financial lease.

2. What are the amounts of the right-of-use asset and lease liability that Child Company should report on its balance sheet at December 31, 20X1?

annual lease payment = $128,000 (ordinary annuity)

PVIFA, 9%, 3 periods = 2.5313

present value = $128,000 x 2.5313 = $324,006.40

3. How much lease expense should Child Company recognize in 20X1?

lease expense = PV of lease x interest rate = $324,006.40 x 9% = $29,160.58
