(Accounting for an Operating Lease) Kaluzniak Corporation leased equipment to Moeller, Inc. on January 1, 2017. The lease agreement called for annual rental payments of $1,137 at the beginning of each year of the 3-year lease. The equipment has an economic useful life of 7 years, a fair value of $7,000, a book value of $5,000, and Kaluzniak expects a residual value of $4,500 at the end of the lease term. Kaluzniak set the lease payments with the intent of earning a 6% return, though Moeller is unaware of the rate implicit in the lease and has an incremental borrowing rate of 8%. There is no bargain purchase option, ownership of the lease does not transfer at the end of the lease term, and the asset is not of a specialized nature.

(b) Prepare the entries for Kaluzniak for 2017.

(c) How would Kaluzniak's accounting in part (a) change if it incurred legal fees of $700 to execute the lease documents and $500 in advertising expenses for the year in connection with the lease?
