20. Capital lease or operating lease (LO16-4) The Deluxe Corporation has just signed a
168-month lease on an asset with a 19-year life. The minimum lease payments are $1,300
per month ($15,600 per year) and are to be discounted back to the present at a 9 percent
annual discount rate. The estimated fair value of the property is $165,000.
a. Calculate the lease period as a percentage to the estimated life of the leased property.
b. Calculate the present value of lease payments as a percentage to the fair value of the
property.
c. Should the lease be recorded as a capital lease or an operating lease. (Use criteria 3 and
4 for a capital lease.)

The lease is less than 75 percent of the estimated life of the
leased property.
The present value of the lease payments is less than 90 percent

21. Balance sheet effect of leases (LO16-4) The Ellis Corporation has heavy lease
commitments. Prior to SFAS No. 13, it merely footnoted lease obligations in the balance
sheet, which appeared as follows:

stockholders’ equity.......................$140
The footnotes stated that the company had $14 million in annual capital lease obligations
for the next 20 years.
a. Discount these annual lease obligations back to the present at a 10 percent discount
rate (round to the nearest million dollars).
b. Construct a revised balance sheet that includes lease obligations, as in Table 16-8.
c. Compute total debt to total assets on the original and revised balance sheets.
d. Compute total debt to equity on the original and revised balance sheets.

22. Determining size of lease payment (LO16-4) The Hardaway Corporation plans to lease a
$740,000 asset to the O’Neil Corporation. The lease will be for 11 years.
a. If the Hardaway Corporation desires a 13 percent return on its investment, how much
should the lease payments be?
b. If the Hardaway Corporation is able to take a 10 percent deduction from the purchase
price of $740,000 and will pass the benefits along to the O’Neil Corporation in the
form of lower lease payments (related to the Hardaway Corporation in the form of
lower initial net cost), how much should the revised lease payments be? The
Hardaway Corporation desires a 13 percent return on the 11-year lease.

COMPREHENSIVE PROBLEM
Comprehensive Problem 1.
Broadband Inc. Bond prices refunding (LO16-2 and 3) Barton Simpson, the chief financial
officer of Broadband Inc. could hardly believe the change in interest rates that had taken place
over the last few months. The interest rate on A2 rated bonds was now 6 percent. The $30
million, 15-year bond issue that his firm has outstanding was initially issued at 9 percent five
years ago.
Because interest rates had gone down so much, he was considering refunding the bond issue.
The old issue had a call premium of 8 percent. The underwriting cost on the old issue had been
3 percent of par and on the new issue, it would be 5 percent of par. The tax rate would be 30
percent and a 4 percent discount rate will be applied for the refunding decision. The new bond
would have a 10-year life.
Before Barton used the 8 percent call provision to reacquire the old bonds, he wanted to make
sure he could not buy them back cheaper in the open market.
a. First compute the price of the old bonds in the open market. Use the valuation procedures for
a bond that were discussed in Chapter 10 (use the annual analysis). Determine the price of a
single $1,000 par value bond.
b. Compare the price in part a to the 8 percent call premium over par value. Which appears to
be more attractive in terms of reacquiring the old bonds?
c. Now do the standard bond refunding analysis as discussed in this chapter. Is the refunding
financially feasible?
d In terms of the refunding decision, how should Barton be influenced if he thinks interest rates
might go down even more?
