At January 1,2024, Caf Med leased restaurant equipment from Crescent Corporation under a nine-year lease agreement.

The lease agreement specifies annual payments of $29,000 beginning January 1,2024, the beginning of the lease, and on each December 31 thereafter through 2031.
The equipment was acquired recently by Crescent at a cost of $216,000(its fair value) and was expected to have a useful life of 12 years with no salvage value at the end of its life.
Because the lease term is only 9 years, the asset does have an expected residual value at the end of the lease term of $76,131.
Crescent seeks a 10% return on its lease investments.
By this arrangement, the lease is deemed to be a finance lease.
