On January 1, 2018, Gemini Corporation leased equipment under a finance lease designed to earn the lessor a 12% rate of return for providing long-term financing. The lease agreement specified ten annual payments of $225,000 beginning January 1, and each December 31 thereafter through 2026. A 10-year service agreement was scheduled to provide maintenance of the equipment as required for a fee of $15,000 per year. Insurance premiums of $12,000 annually are related to the equipment.
