Assume that IBM leased equipment that was carried at a cost of $120,000 to Sharon Swander Company. The term of the lease is 6 years beginning January 1, 2020, with equal rental payments of $28,430 at the beginning of each year. All executory costs are paid by Swander directly to third parties. The fair value of the equipment at the inception of the lease is $145,000. The equipment has a useful life of 6 years with no residual value. The lease has an implicit interest rate of 7%, no bargain-purchase option, and no transfer of title. Collectibility is reasonably assured with no additional cost to be incurred by IBM.

The present value of an annuity due, 6 years, 7% is 5.10020

Nash Company uses special strapping equipment in its packaging business. The equipment was purchased in January 2019 for $10,200,000 and had an estimated useful life of 8 years with no salvage value. At December 31, 2020, new technology was introduced that would accelerate the obsolescence of Nash’s equipment. Nash’s controller estimates that expected future net cash flows on the equipment will be $6,426,000 and that the fair value of the equipment is $5,712,000. Nash intends to continue using the equipment, but it is estimated that the remaining useful life is 4 years. Nash uses straight-line depreciation.
