Accounting for leases



                       The supply of x-ray machines is part of Lessor Corp’s ongoing major or central operations. The
                       transaction qualifies as a sales-type lease. Other facts of the arrangement are:


                        Lease term                       5 years (noncancellable)

                        Economic life                    5 years

                        Payments from the customer       $5/click of the x-ray machine to take an x-ray
                                                         Fixed maintenance fee of $2,000/year for 5 years (payable at
                                                         the end of each month)

                        Variable payments estimate during
                        the term of the arrangement      $125,000

                        Fair value of the leased asset   $100,000

                        Lessor Corp’s carrying value of the
                        leased asset                     $80,000


                        Estimated fair value of the leased   $0
                        asset at the end of 5 years

                        Standalone price for leasing a   $100,000
                        similar asset for 5 years

                        Standalone price for maintenance   $10,000
                        for 5 years

                        Inception date and               January 1
                        commencement date

                        Other                            Collection of payments from the customer is probable


                       The arrangement contains two components - a lease component (the lease of the x-ray machine) and a
                       nonlease component (the maintenance services).

                       Contract consideration is $10,000 ($2,000 × 5), which is the fixed amount for maintenance over the 5
                       years. Contract consideration excludes the $5/click because it relates to the lease component and is a
                       variable payment that does not depend on an index or a rate. Therefore, the supplier (lessor) would
                       allocate the contract consideration between the components under the new leases guidance as follows:

                                                                                                    Allocation of
                                                                              Allocation %              contract
                                                   Standalone price           (A/$110,000)         consideration
                                 Component                      (A)                    (B)           (B*$10,000)

                        Lease                             $100,000                 90.91%                 $9,091
                        Maintenance                          10,000                 9.09%                    909


                        Total                             $110,000                  100%                 $10,000
