Current Attempt in Progress

Assume that on January $1,2025,$ Sheffield Corporation sells equipment to Sheridan Finance Co$.$ for $$1,820,000$ and immediately

leases back the equipment. The relevant information is as follows.

The equipment was carried on Sheffield's books at a value of $$1,610,000.$

The term of the non$-$cancelable lease is $3$ years; title will not transfer to Sheffield, and the expected residual value at the end

of the lease is $$120,750,$ all of which is unguaranteed.

The lease agreement requires equal rental payments of $$297,995$ at the beginning of each year.

The incremental borrowing rate for Sheffield is $8\%.$ Sheffield is aware that Sheridan Finance set the annual rental to ensure a

rate of return of $8\%.$

The equipment has a fair value of $$1,820,000$ on January $1,2025,$ an estimated economic life of $10$ years and will be

depreciated using the straight$-$line method.
