To raise operating funds, Signal Aviation sold an airplane on
January 1, 2021, to a finance company for $770,000. Signal
immediately leased the plane back for a 13-year period, at which
time ownership of the airplane will transfer to Signal. The
airplane has a fair value of $800,000. Its cost and its book value
were $600,000. Its useful life is estimated to be 15 years. The
lease requires Signal to make payments of $102,771 to the finance
company each January 1. Signal depreciates assets on a
straight-line basis. The lease has an implicit rate of 11%.
