    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.
