The following information pertains to a sale and leaseback
of equipment by Mega Co. on December 31, 2003:
Sales price $400,000
Carrying amount $300,000
Monthly lease payment $3,250
Present value of lease payments $36,900
Estimated remaining life 25 years
Lease term 1 year
Implicit rate 12%
What amount of deferred gain on the sale should Mega report
at December 31, 2003?
a. $0
b. $ 36,900
c. $ 63,100
d. $100,000
Can anyone answer to this questionalong with explaination?
I believe, minor portion of asset right has been retained n hence no deferral of gain(entire gain has to be recognized in full immediately)...n hence answer zero.....but answer to this is $100000.
Kindly help!!!

The PV of lease payment is less than 10% of FMV of lease back property. As a result, a full gain of 100,000 is recognized, none is deferred.
The answer is A (zero)
