Isden Production Company leased a machine on January 1, 1990, under a contract calling for annual payments

Question:

Isden Production Company leased a machine on January 1, 1990, under a contract calling for annual payments of \(\$ 48,000\) on December 31 at the end of each of five years, with the machine becoming the property of the lessee company after the fifth \(\$ 48,000\) payment. The machine was estimated to have an eight-year-life and no salvage value, and the interest rate available to Isden for equipment loans on the day the lease was signed was \(14 \%\). The machine was delivered on January 5, 1990, and was immediately placed in operation. At the beginning of the eighth year in the machine's life, it was overhauled at a \(\$ 3,060\) total cost. The overhaul was paid for on January 10, and it did not increase the machine's efficiency but it did add an additional year to its expected service life. On March 31, during the ninth year in the machine's life, it was traded in on a new machine of like purpose having a \(\$ 144,000\) cash price. A \(\$ 12,000\) trade-in allowance was received and the balance was paid in cash.
