Answer

The lease includes a bargain purchase option.

Step by step solution

01

Meaning of BPO

A BPO offers the lessee the option to purchase the leased asset at a price that is much lower than the estimated fair value of the asset and appears relatively certain to exercise the option.

02

Discussing the nature of the lease to Lennox Company

A bargain-purchase option is included in the lease agreement. From the perspective of the lessor, the lease qualifies as a finance-type lease. The lease is classified as a sales-type lease since the initial amount of the lease receivable (net investment) (which in this case equals the present value of the minimum lease payments, $81,000) exceeds the lessor's cost ($65,000).
