On 1 April 2019, Brilliant Ltd leased an equipment to Smart Ltd. The lease agreement is non-cancellable with a lease term of three years. The equipment is

expected to have an economic life of five years, after which time it will have an expected salvage value of $30,000. There are to be three annual payments of

$125,000, the first to be made on 31 March 2020 (i.e. at the end of the year). Included in the $125,000 is $5,000 representing payment for insurance and

maintenance. The interest rate implicit in the lease is the last number of your student ID. If your student ID is 0, use 10. The fair value of the equipment at the

inception of the lease can be found by opening the Excel Sheet entitled Worksheet for Q1 Lease and entering the last digit of your student ID in the
