Which is true of an operating lease?

There is no bargain purchase option in the lease contract.

On December 31, Year One, the Brangdon Corporation leases a truck to use in its operations. The truck has a life of 10 years, although the lease is only for six years. Payments are $10,000 per year with the first payment made immediately. No interest payments are made but Brangsdon has an incremental borrowing rate of 9%. The present value of an annuity due at a 9% rate for six periods is $4.88965. The present value of an ordinary annuity at a 9% rate for six periods is $4.48592. If this is an operating lease, what figure is recorded initially as the capitalized cost of the truck? 1. Zero 2. $38,897 3. $44,859 4. $48,897

This lease is identified as an operating lease and, therefore, no amount is reported as the capitalized cost of the truck. A capitalized cost for the leased asset is only recognized in a capital lease.

What are issued shares of a corporation's own stock that have been reacquired?

Treasury stock

A company buys a machine on October 1, Year One, for $500,000 with a $100,000 estimated residual value and an expected life of 10 years. The straight-line method of depreciation and the half-year convention are both used. On December 31, Year Three, company officials examine the machine and decide that it will only be able to generate $406,000 in future cash flows over its remaining life. It has a fair value at that date of $338,000. From an accounting perspective, the asset's value is not impaired, and no loss should be recognized. Is this true or false?

True

Mega Corporation acquires an intangible asset for $800,000 and spent $100,000 for its legal title and fees. The company estimates a useful life of 10 years and a residual value of $50,000. After two years, Frayole Holdings Inc. offers $770,000 to purchase the asset. Should the offer be accepted by the company?

Yes, because the gain is $40,000
