Renewable Co. uses leasing as a secondary means of selling its products. The company contracted with Green Cor-

poration to lease a machine with an economic life of 12 years to be used by Green Corporation in its operations. The

fair value of the asset at the inception of the lease was $400,000; it cost Renewable Co. $360,000 and is carried as

equipment at that value. Payments of $44,925 are to be made by Green Corporation at the beginning of each of the

eight years of the lease. Renewable Co.s implicit interest rate is 6% per year, which is not known by Green Corpo-

ration. Green Corporations incremental borrowing rate is 7%. Renewable Co. estimates the residual value of the

leased asset to be $166,217 at the end of the lease term. The residual value is not guaranteed by Green Corporation.

Renewable Co. will depreciate the equipment on a straight-line basis (assume no salvage value).
