The lease had a non-cancellable ten-year term and required annual lease payments of $19,000 to be paid on January 1 of each year with the first payment due January 1, 2010. The annual payment includes $1,000 for executory costs. Oxford guarantees a $15,00

On January 1, 2010, Oxford Company leased equipment from Starkville Company. The lease had a non-cancellable ten-year term and required annual lease payments of $19,000 to be paid on January 1 of each year with the first payment due January 1, 2010. The annual payment includes $1,000 for executory costs. Oxford guarantees a $15,000 residual value at the end of the lease term. The estimated economic life of the equipment is 12 years.
