Q

Douglas Co. leased machinery with an economic useful life of 6 years. For tax purposes, the depreciable life is 7 years. The lease is for 5 years, and Douglas can purchase the machinery at fair value at the end of lease. What is the depreciable life of the leased machinery for financial reporting?

A

5 years

Although the machine has an economic life of 6 years, there is no indication that Douglas will exercise the fair value purchase option. So, the machine should be depreciated over the lease term, which is 5 years.

Q

The following info pertains to Park township’s general fund at 12/31/Year 1:
Total assets, including $200K cash- $1,000,000
Total liabilities - $600,000
Budgetary control (open purchase orders) - $100,000

Appropriations do not lapse at year-end. At 12/31/Year 1, what amount should Park report as unassigned fund balance in its general fund balance sheet?

A

$300,000

Total assets - 1,000,000
Less: Total liabilities - (600,000)
Total fund balance - $400,000
Since appropriations do not lapse at year end, the budgetary control must be reported a part of the assigned portion of fund balance
So, 400,000 - 100,000 = $300,000
