1.		On January 1, 2020, Swifty signed an agreement to operate as a franchisee of Copy Service Inc., for an initial franchise fee of $75,000. Of this amount, $32,000 was paid when the agreement was signed and the balance is payable in four annual payments of $10,750 each, beginning January 1, 2022. The agreement provides that the down payment is not refundable and no future services are required of the franchisor. The present value at January 1, 2020, of the four annual payments discounted at 7% (the implicit rate for a loan of this type) is $36,413. The agreement also provides that 3% of the franchisees revenue must be paid to the franchisor each year. The franchisor requires that Swifty provide it with some form of assurance verifying the revenue amount used to determine the 3% payment. Swiftys revenue from the franchise for 2020 was $830,000. Swifty estimates that the franchises useful life will be 10 years.
