Is residual value included in the NPV calculation for leases?
When calculating the NPV of future minimum lease payments, we would multiply the annual guaranteed lease payments by the present value factor. However, if there is residual value and its guaranteed, then it would be included in the calculation. If the residual value is unguaranteed, then it would be excluded from the calculation.

When you calculate the net present value of future minimum lease payments, the rule is that you will always use the implicit rate if it is available. The incremental borrowing rate (IBR) is only used the implicit rate is not available.

What is the journal entry to record the amortization expense for a finance lease?
On the lease inception (start) date, the company would capitalize the finance lease onto the balance sheet based on the net present value of future minimum lease payments. The company then needs to amortize the ROU asset. Annual amortization expense is calculated as the ROU asset divided by the lease life. So, if the ROU...
