On January 1, 2017, Salvatore Inc. leased several machines from Robert, LLP under a 1 year operating lease agreement. The lease calls for semiannual payments of $15,000 each, payable on June 30 and December 31 of each year. The machines were acquired by Robert at a cost of $90,000 and are expected to have a useful life of five years with no expected residual value. Prepare the appropriate journal entries for the lessee from the inception of the lease through the end of 2017.

**Does it matter if I use Rent Expense or Lease Expense account?** Thank you!
