Devon Harris Company has provided information on intangible assets as follows.
A patent was purchased from Bradtke Company for
$2,707,000
on January 1, 2011. Harris estimated the remaining useful life of the patent to be 10 years. The patent was carried in Bradtke’s accounting records at a net book value of $1,921,400 when Bradtke sold it to Harris.
During 2012, a franchise was purchased from Greene Company for
$548,200
. In addition, 5
%
of revenue from the franchise must be paid to Greene. Revenue from the franchise for 2012 was $2,394,000. Harris estimates the useful life of the franchise to be 10 years and takes a full year’s amortization in the year of purchase.
Harris incurred research and development costs in 2012 as follows.

Materials and equipment |
$141,300 |
|
Personnel |
191,700 |
|
Indirect costs |

|
$ 436,800 |
Harris estimates that these costs will be recouped by December 31, 2015. The materials and equipment purchased have no alternative uses.
On January 1, 2012, because of recent events in the field, Harris estimates that the remaining life of the patent purchased on January 1, 2011, is only 5 years from January 1, 2012.

On July 31, 2012, Mexico Company paid $3,004,200 to acquire all of the common stock of Conchita Incorporated, which became a division of Mexico. Conchita reported the following balance sheet at the time of the acquisition.

It was determined at the date of the purchase that the fair value of the identifiable net assets of Conchita was $2,758,200. Over the next 6 months of operations, the newly purchased division experienced operating losses. In addition, it now appears that it will generate substantial losses for the foreseeable future. At December 31, 2012, Conchita reports the following balance sheet information.

It is determined that the fair value of the Conchita Division is $1,852,500. The recorded amount for Conchita’s net assets (excluding goodwill) is the same as fair value, except for property, plant, and equipment, which has a fair value $

Assume that IBM leased equipment that was carried at a cost of $150,000 to Sharon Swander Company. The term of the lease is 6 years beginning January 1, 2012, with equal rental payments of $30,044 at the beginning of each year. All executory costs are paid by Swander directly to third parties. The fair value of the equipment at the inception of the lease is $150,000. The equipment has a useful life of 6 years with no salvage value. The lease has an implicit interest rate of 8%, no bargain-purchase option, and no transfer of title. Collectibility is reasonably assured with no additional cost to be incurred by IBM.

On January 1, 2012, Adams Corporation signed a 7-year noncancelable lease for a machine. The terms of the lease called for Adams to make annual payments of $9,214 at the beginning of each year, starting January 1, 2012. The machine has an estimated useful life of 8 years and a $5,480 unguaranteed residual value. The machine reverts back to the lessor at the end of the lease term. Adams uses the straight-line method of depreciation for all of its plant assets. Adams’s incremental borrowing rate is 11%, and the lessor’s implicit rate is unknown. |

Wadkins Company, a machinery dealer, leased a machine to Romero Corporation on January 1, 2012. The lease is for an 8-year period and requires equal annual payments of $40,897 at the beginning of each year. The first payment is received on January 1, 2012. Wadkins had purchased the machine during 2011 for $172,000. Collectibility of lease payments is reasonably predictable, and no important uncertainties surround the amount of costs yet to be incurred by Wadkins. Wadkins set the annual rental to ensure an 10% rate of return. The machine has an economic life of 10 years with no residual value and reverts to Wadkins at the termination of the lease. |

On February 20, 2012, Hooke Inc., purchased a machine for $1,206,000 for the purpose of leasing it. The machine is expected to have a 10-year life, no residual value, and will be depreciated on the straight-line basis. The machine was leased to Sage Company on March 1, 2012, for a 4-year period at a monthly rental of
$13,200
. There is no provision for the renewal of the lease or purchase of the machine by the lessee at the expiration of the lease term. Hooke paid $30,096 of commissions associated with negotiating the lease in February 2012:

The collectibility of the lease payments is reasonably predictable, and there are no important uncertainties surrounding the costs yet to be incurred by the lessor. The lessee assumes responsibility for all executory costs, which amount to $5,220 per year and are to be paid each October 1, beginning October 1, 2012. (This $5,220 is not included in the rental payment of $67,700.) The asset will revert to the lessor at the end of the lease term. The straight-line depreciation method is used for all equipment.
The following amortization schedule has been prepared correctly for use by both the lessor and the lessee in accounting for this lease. The lease is to be accounted for properly as a capital lease by the lessee and as a direct-financing lease by the lessor.
