Equal annual payments under the lease are $800,000 and are due on July 1 of each year. The first payment was made on July 1, 2018. The rate of interest contemplated by Roman and Koenig is 8%.

Answer:

1. $565,000 and $166,600

Explanation:

In case of recording sale instead of lease the interest should be computed on Cash selling price instead of cost of the equipment .

Interest income = ($4,965,000 - $800,000)*8%*6/12

                          = $166,600

As $800,000 is due in July 1  

Profit = $4,965,000 - $4,400,000

         = $565,000

Therefore, The amount of profit on the sale and the interest income that Koenig would record for the year ended December 31, 2018 is $166,600  and $565,000.
