In 2008, Yin Trucking Corporation, which follows private enterprise GAAP, negotiated and closed a long-term lease contract
Question:
Although the useful life of each terminal is 40 years, the non-cancellable lease runs for 20 years from January 1, 2009, with a purchase option available upon expiration of the lease.
The 20-year lease is effective for the period January 1, 2009, through December 31, 2028. Advance rental payments of $900,000 are payable to the lessor on January 1 of each of the first 10 years of the lease term. Advance rental payments of $320,000 are due on January 1 for each of the last 10 years of the lease. The company has an option to purchase all of these leased facilities for $1 million on December 31, 2028, although their fair value at that time is estimated at $3 million.
At the end of 40 years, the terminals and facilities will have no remaining value. Yin Trucking must also make annual payments to the lessor of $125,000 for property taxes and $23,000 for insurance. The lease was negotiated to assure the lessor a 6% rate of return.
