The following information pertains to this lease agreement.
(a) The agreement requires equal rental payments at the beginning each year.

(d) At the termination of the lease, the title to the building will be transferred to the lessee.
(e) Carla Vista's incremental borrowing rate is 12% per year. Holt Warehouse Co. set the annual rental to insure a 11% rate of return. The implicit rate of the lessor is known by Carla Vista, Inc.
