Cash Payback of principal Dr. Bond Payable Cr. Cash Accounting for Bonds - Calculations Use market interest rate at issuance (r) to discount and calculate the interest expense. Coupon rate is ONLY used to calculate the coupon payment. Proceeds from issuance = coupon payments * PVOA (r,n) + principal * PV(r,n) Premium/Discount = proceeds from issuance – par value Interest Expense = book value of bond (net bond payable) * r = (par value -/+ Premium/Discount balance) * r Premium accrual = coupon payment – interest expense Discount accrual = interest expense – coupon payment Accounting for Leases Terminology Operating Lease: Lessee rents the property. Lessee charges rent expenses as they become due in each period. Capital Lease: Lessee essentially owns the property. Lessee records the leased asset in B/S together with the corresponding lease obligation. During the term of the lease, lessee charges depreciation expenses and interest expenses. Criteria for lease capitalization: a lease is considered a capital lease if ANY of the following conditions apply. Essential transfer of ownership at the end of lease term: no payment for leased asset, or Bargain purchase option (BPO) (payment below market value after the lease term). Minimum present value of lease payments (including BPO, if any) at lease 90% of asset’s market value. Lease term is 75% of asset’s remaining useful life. Accounting for Leases - Entries for capital leases Accounting is similar to acquiring an asset with 100% debt financing. Any payment in advance is recorded as an immediate reduction in the lease liability. During the lease term, interest expense and depreciation expense are recognized. When the lease terminates, the Lease Obligation is zero and Leased Property – Acc. Depre. = 0. Lease inception: Dr. Leased Property Cr. Lease Obligation Leased Property = PV of Lease payments Each lease period: Dr. Interest Expense Dr. Lease Obligation Cr. Cash Dr. Depreciation Expense Cr. Accumulated Depreciation Interest Expense= interest rate * Beginning balance of Lease Obligation Deferred Tax Permanent differences: Differences between pre-tax GAAP income and pre-tax taxable income that will never be reversed, e.g. Government Fines, Tax-Exempt Revenue. Temporary timing differences: Differences between pretax GAAP income and pre-tax taxable income that will be reversed at some point in the future. Temporary differences create Deferred Tax Liabilities and Deferred Tax Assets. Deferred Tax Liabilities (DTL) Taxable Income < Pre-tax GAAP income, Tax Payable < Tax Expense Taxpayer pays lower taxes today. A liability must be recorded to account for the added taxes to be paid at some point in the future. Deferred Tax Assets (DTA) Taxable Income > Pre-tax GAAP income, Tax Payable > Tax Expense Taxpayer pays higher taxes today. An asset must be recorded to account for the value of lower taxes to be paid at some point in the future. Deferred Tax – effective tax rate vs. statutory tax rate (GAAP pre-tax income – income from tax-exempt investments – foreign income taxed at rate lower than 35% - intercorporate dividends received) * statutory rate = Tax expense Tax expense / pre-tax GAAP income = effective tax rate Taxable income (including not only the adjustments above, but also different accounting treatments such as depre. Method) * statutory rate = Tax payable Conclusion: DTL/DTA does not contain permanent differences. However, the difference between effective tax rate and statutory tax rate is partially caused by permanent differences.
