Question - On January 1, 2020, Thor Corp. sells land to Loki Inc. for $2,000,000, and immediately leases the land back. Both companies follow ASPE. The following information relates to this transaction:
The term of the non-cancellable lease is 20 years and the title transfers to Thor at the end of the lease term.
The land has a cost basis of $1,600,000 to Thor.
The lease agreement calls for equal rental payments of $203,704 at the end of each year. • The land has a fair value of $2,000,000 on January 1, 2020.
The incremental borrowing rate of Thor Corp. is 10%. Thor is aware that Loki set the annual rentals to ensure a rate of return of 8%.
Thor pays all executory costs, which total $170,000 in 2020.
Collectability of the rentals is reasonably assured, and any un-reimbursable costs under the lease that are likely to be incurred can be reasonably estimated by the lessor.
