Question 1: Accounting for Lease

Owing to low liquidity, Lisa Ltd decides on 1 July 2015 to sell its land and buildings to Anderson Ltd. The carrying values of the land and buildings in the books of Lisa Ltd, at 1 July 2015, are:

Land at cost                                $1800000

Buildings, at cost                         $1750000

Accumulated depreciation              $350000

The land and buildings are sold for $4334 700 (their fair value), with the amount being allocated equally as follows:

Land                                           $2167350

Buildings                                     $2167350

Immediately following the sale, Lisa Ltd decides to lease back the land and buildings from Anderson Ltd. The term of the lease is 20 years. The implicit interest rate in the lease is 12 per cent. It is expected that the buildings will be demolished at the end of the lease term.

Payment on inception of the lease on 1 July 2015               $600000
