Question 129

Essay

One Republic Company leased equipment to Maps Company on January 1, 2014. The lease term is for a four-year period. The annual lease payments must be made on January 1 of each year, with the first payment due on January 1, 2014. Additional information relating to the lease is as follows: • The cost of equipment to One Republic was $70,000, and the normal selling price for this type of equipment is $110,000.
•One Republic requires a 10% rate of return on its investments, so this is the interest rate used to calculate the annual lease payments.
•The lease contains a bargain purchase option. On December 31, 2017, the lessee may acquire the equipment for $4,000.
•The equipment has an expected economic life of six years. The residual value of the equipment at that time is estimated to be $1,000.
•The collectibility of the lease payments is reasonably assured, and there are no important uncertainties surrounding the amount of unreimbursable costs yet to be incurred by the lessor.
