1. Swifty Company has the option to purchase the equipment for $15,700 upon termination of the lease. 2. The equipment has a cost and fair value of $157,000 to Marigold Leasing Company. The useful economic life is 2 years, with a salvage value of $15,700. 3. Swifty Company is required to pay $5,000 each year to the lessor for executory costs. 4.
