Chapter 11 Long- Term Liabilities Notes, Bonds, and Leases 2
Long- Term Liabilities Many companies finance their operations and growth opportunities through the use of long term debt instruments: Notes Payable Formal borrowing agreement Bonds Payable Issued to bondholders, smaller dollar amounts and larger amount of notes Leasehold Obligations future cash payments for use of an asset 3

Economic Consequences of Reporting Long- Term Liabilities Improved credit ratings can lead to lower borrowing costs Management has strong incentive to manage the balance sheet by using off-balance-sheet financing 5
Basic Definitions and Different Contractual Forms Some contracts, called interest-bearing obligations, require periodic (annual or semiannual) cash payments (called interest) that are determined as a percentage of the face, principal, or maturity value, which must be paid at the end of the contract period. Non-interest-bearing obligations, on the other hand, require no periodic payments, but only a single cash payment at the end of the contract period. These contractual forms may contain additional terms that specify assets pledged as security or collateral in case the required cash payments are not met (default), as well as additional provisions (restrictive covenants). 6

Long-Term Liabilities Notes, Bonds, and Leases Long-term liabilities are recorded at the present value of the future cash flows. Two components determine the time value of money: interest (discount) rate number of periods of discounting Types of activities that require PV calculations: notes payable bonds payable and bond investments capital leases 8

Present Value of a Single Sum All present value calculations presume a discount rate (i) and a number of periods of discounting (n). There are 3 different ways you can calculate the PV1: 1. Formula: PV1 = FV1 [1/(1+i)n] 2. Tables near the back of your book 3. Financial Calculator (time value of money). 10
Long- term Notes Payable Example Problem 1: On January 2, 2014, Pearson Company purchases a section of land for its new plant site. Pearson issues a 5 year non-interest bearing note, and promises to pay $50,000 at the end of the 5 year period. What is the cash equivalent price of the land, if a 6 percent discount rate is assumed? PV1 = 50,000 x ( 0.74726) = $37,363 (0.74726 from PV Table) Journal entry Jan. 2, 2008: [ i=6%, n=5] Dr. Land 37,363 Dr. Discount on N/P 12,637 Cr. Notes Payable 50,000 11
Long- term Notes Payable Ex. Prob 1 cont d The Effective Interest Method: Interest Expense = Carrying value x Interest rate x Time period (CV) (Per year) (Portion of year) Where carrying value = face - discount. For Example 1, CV= 50,000-12,637 = 37,363 Interest expense = 37,363 x 6% per year x 1year = $2,242 12
Long- term Notes Payable Ex. Prob 1 cont d Journal entry, December 31, 2014: Interest expense 2,242 Discount on N/P 2,242 Carrying value on B/S at 12/31/2014: Notes Payable $50,000 Discount on N/P (10,395) $39,605 (Discount = $12,637-2,242 = $10,395) 13
Long- term Notes Payable Ex. Prob 1 cont d Interest expense at Dec. 31, 2015: 39,605 x 6% x 1 = $2,376 Journal entry, December 31, 2015: Interest expense 2,376 Discount on N/P 2,376 Carrying value on B/S at 12/31/2015: Notes Payable $50,000 Discount on N/P (8,019) $41,981 (Discount = 10,395-2,376) Carrying value on 12/31/2018 (before retirement)? $50,000 14

Bonds Payable at a Discount If bonds are issued at a discount, the carrying value will be below face value at the date of issue. The Discount on B/P account has a normal debit balance and is a contra to B/P (similar to the Discount on N/P). The Discount account is amortized with a credit. Note that the difference between Cash Paid and Interest Expense is still the amount of amortization. Interest expense for bonds issued at a discount will be greater than cash paid. The amortization table will show the bonds amortized up to face value. 20

Present Value of an Ordinary Annuity (PVOA) PVOA calculations presume a discount rate (i), where (A) = the amount of each annuity, and (n) = the number of annuities (or rents), which is the same as the number of periods of discounting. There are 3 different ways you can calculate PVOA: 1. Formula: PVOA = A [1-(1/(1+i)n)] / i 2. Tables: near the back of you book 3. Financial Calculator (time value of money). 23
Accounting for Bonds Payable Example Problem 2: On July 1, 2014, Mustang Corporation issues $100,000 of its 5-year bonds which have an annual stated rate of 7%, and pay interest semiannually each June 30 and December 31, starting December 31, 2014. The bonds were issued to yield 6% annually. Calculate the issue price of the bond: (1) What are the cash flows and factors? Face value at maturity = $100,000 Stated Interest = Face value x stated rate x time period 100,000 x 7% x (1/2) = $3,500 Number of periods = n = 5 years x 2 = 10 Discount rate = 6% / 2 = 3% per period 24
Accounting for Bonds Payable Ex. Prob 2 cont d PV of interest annuity: PVOA Table PVOA = 3,500 (8.53020) = $29,856 i = 3%, n = 10 PV of face value: PV1 Table PV = 100,000 (0.74409)=$74,409 i=3%, n=10 Total issue price = $104,265 Issued at a premium of $4,265 because the company was offering an interest rate greater than the market rate, and investors were willing to pay more for the higher interest rate. 25
Accounting for Bonds Payable Ex Prob 2 cont d To recognize interest expense using the effective interest method, an amortization schedule must be constructed. To calculate the columns (see next slide): Cash paid = Face x Stated Rate x Time = 100,000 x 7% x 1/2 year = $3,500 (this is the same amount every period) Int. Expense = CV x Market Rate x Time at 12/31/14 = 104,265 x 6% x 1/2 year = 3,128 at 6/30/15 = 103,893 x 6% x 1/2 year = 3,117 The difference between cash paid and interest expense is the periodic amortization of premium. Note that the carrying value is amortized down to face value by maturity. 26

Bond Redemptions When bonds are redeemed at the maturity date, the issuing company simply pays cash to the bondholders in the amount of the face value and removes the bond payable from the balance sheet. To illustrate the redemption of a bond issuance prior to maturity at a loss, assume that bonds with a $100,000 face value and a $5,000 unamortized discount are redeemed for $102,000. The $7,000 loss on redemption would decrease net income. 29
Leases A contract granting use of occupation of property during a specified period of time in exchange for rent payments. Land Buildings Machinery Equipment Avoid risks and associated costs of ownership Operating Leases pure rental agreement where the lessor maintains all ownership responsibilities Off-Balance-Sheet Financing Capital Leases Risks and benefits of ownership have effectively transferred to the lessee 30
Leases (cont d) FASB issued SFAS No. 13, requires certain leases to be recorded as capital leases. Capital leases record the leased asset as a capital asset, and reflect the present value of the related payment contract as a liability. Requirements of SFAS No. 13 - record as capital lease for the lessee if any one of the following is present in the lease: Title transfers at the end of the lease period, The lease contains a bargain purchase option, The lease life is at least 75% of the useful life of the asset, or The lessee pays for at least 90% of the fair market value of the lease. 31

International Perspective The accounting disclosure requirements in non-u.s. countries and IFRS are not as comprehensive as those in the United States, partially because the information needs of the major capital providers (i.e., banks) are satisfied in a relatively straightforward way through personal contact and direct visits. A second way in which the heavy reliance on debt affects non-u.s. accounting systems is that the required disclosures and regulations tend to be designed either to protect the creditor or to help in the assessment of solvency. 33

Appendix 11C Interest Rate Swaps and Hedging A common method used by companies to reduce such risks is called hedging, where a company enters into a contract that creates risks that counteract or balance the risks attempted to be hedged (reduced). The most common method of hedging market interest rate risk is called an interest rate swap. 36
