Companies use straight-line


On December 31, 2013, Rhone-Metro Industries leased equipment to Western Soya Co. for a four-year period ending December 31, 2017, at which time possession of the leased asset will revert back to Rhone-Metro. The equipment cost Rhone-Metro $672,747 and has an expected useful life of six years. Its normal sales price is $672,747. The lessee-guaranteed residual value at December 31, 2017, is $15,000. Equal payments under the lease are $190,000 and are due on December 31 of each year. The first payment was made on December 31, 2013. Collectibility of the remaining lease payments is reasonably assured, and Rhone-Metro has no material cost uncertainties. Western Soya's incremental borrowing rate is 12%. Western Soya knows the interest rate implicit in the lease payments is 10%. Both companies use straight-line depreciation
