The lease is for a 10-year period (the useful life of the asset) expiring June 30, 2029. The first of 10 equal annual payments of $500,000 was made on July 1, 2019. Fox had purchased the equipment for $2,675,000 on January 1, 2019, and established a list selling price of $3,375,000 on the equipment.
