Metlock Corporation enters into a 6-year lease of equipment on December 31, 2019, which requires 6 annual payments of $37,100 each, beginning December 31, 2019. In addition, Metlock guarantees the lessor a residual value of $20,900 at the end of the lease. However, Metlock believes it is probable that the expected residual value at the end of the lease term will be $10,900. The equipment has a useful life of 6 years. Assume that for Lost Ark Company, the lessor, collectibility of lease payments is probable and the carrying amount of the equipment is $130,000. Prepare Lost Ark's 2019 and 2020 journal entries, assuming the implicit rate of the lease is 10% and this is known to Metlock.
