Thomas forms a company, Thomson Ltd to manufacture motorised roller blades. To make the roller blades, Thomson Ltd needs to acquire specialised machinery from Fernster Ltd, which designs and manufactures the machinery. To manufacture the equipment, which has an estimated economic life of eight years, costs Fernster Ltd $200 000. Fernster Ltd sells the equipment to parties such as Thomson Ltd for $263 948. Thomson Ltd decides to lease the equipment from Fernster Ltd for a period of seven years, by way of a non-cancellable lease. The lease commences on 1 July 2019. The lease payments are made at the end of each year and amount to $55 000. The lease payments include reimbursement of Fernster Ltds costs for servicing the machinery at an amount of $5 000 per annum. There is an unguaranteed residual at the end of the lease term of $40 000, which represents expectations of what the lessee and lessor expect the machinery to be worth at the end of the lease term. The rate of interest implicit in the lease is 10 per cent.
