Explanation / Answer

Solution:

Annual lease payments at beginnig of lease = $85,000

Maintenance and insurance premium to be paid by lessor = $9,500 + $8,500 = $18,000

Effective annual lease payment solely for use of assets = $85,000 - $18,000 = $68,000

Rate of return to lessor (i) = 9%

Period of lease (n) = 10 years

Lease Payment = $68,000

Right of use assets = Annual lease payment * cumulative PV Factor of immediate annuity for 10 period at 9%

= $68,000 * 6.995247 = $475,677
