On Jan. 1, 2001, Kaiser Financing acquired bottling equipment for $900,000 and immediately leased it to Fonda Drinks. The lease would last 8 years, commencing immediately on Jan. 1, 2001, and required Fonda DDrinks to make 8 equal annual lease payments, each to be made at the beginning of the year. The botling equipment was estimated to have a useful life of 8 yaers.

Kaiser Financing wished to earn an 8% return(before taxes) on the lease arrangement, expected the asset to be worth $20,000 (unguaranteed by Fonda Drinks) when returned after 8 years, and set the anual lease payment accordingly. Kaiser Financing had a Dec. 31 fiscal year-end.
