Question No. 1 Leases
Eagle River Inc. entered into a direct financing lease with Adolphe Leasing Company for equipment that has a fair value of $500,000. The term of the lease is 5 years and the useful life of the equipment is 8 years. The initial lease payment begins on March 1, 2020, with annual lease payments of $113,000 payable at the beginning of each lease year. Eagle River’s incremental borrowing rate is 7%. Adolphe’s pre-tax interest rate in the lease is 8%, but Eagle River is not aware of this rate. Eagle River amortizes equipment on a straight-line basis. Both companies have a December 31 fiscal year-end.
