On January 1, 2015, Capital Corp. leased equipment to Hinton Corporation. The following information pertains to this lease.
1. The term of the noncancelable lease is 12 years, with no renewal option. The equipment reverts to the lessor at the termination of the lease.
2. Equal rental payments are due on January 1 of each year, beginning in 2015.
3. The fair value of the equipment on January 1, 2015, is $225,000, and its cost is $180,000.
4. The equipment has an economic life of 16 years. Hinton depreciates all of its equipment on a straight-line basis.
5. Capital set the annual rental to ensure an 11% rate of return. Hinton's incremental borrowing rate is 12%, and the implicit rate of the lessor is unknown.
