On December 31, 2015, Burton, Inc. leased machinery with a fair value of $1,260,000 from Cey Rentals Co. The agreement is a six-year noncancelable lease requiring annual payments of $240,000 beginning December 31, 2015. The lease is appropriately accounted for by Burton as a finance lease. Burton’s incremental borrowing rate is 11%. Burton knows the interest rate implicit in the lease payments is 10%.
The present value of an annuity due of 1 for 6 years at 10% is 4.7908.
The present value of an annuity due of 1 for 6 years at 11% is 4.6959.
