Classified the lease as a capital lease


Jordan Co. leased a machine on December 31, 2011. Annual payments under the lease are $110,000 (which includes $10,000 annual executory costs) and are due on December 31 each year, for a ten-year period. The first payment was made on December 31, 2011, and the second payment was made on December 31, 2012. According to the agreement, the lease payments are discounted at 10 percent over the lease term. Assume the present value of minimum lease payments at the inception of the lease and before the first annual payment was $615,000 and Jordan appropriately classified the lease as a capital lease. What is the lease liability Jordan should report in its December 31, 2012, balance sheet?
