($ in millions)
| 2016 | 2015 | |
| Assets | ||

| Property under capital lease | $11,096 | $5,239 |
| Less: Accumulated amortization | (4,751) | (2,864) |
| Liabilities | ||
| Current liabilities: | ||
| Obligations under finance leases due within one year | 551 | 287 |
| Long-term debt: | ||
| Long-term obligations under finance leases | 5,816 | 2,606 |
Required:
1. Discuss some possible reasons why Walmart leases rather than purchases most of its premises.

- Exercise 15-12 (Static) Lessee; finance lease; financial statement effects [LO15-2] At January 1, 2024, Café Med leased restaurant equipment from Crescent Corporation under a nine-year lease agreement. • The lease agreement specifies annual payments of $25,000 beginning January 1, 2024, the beginning of the lease, and on each December 31 thereafter through 2031. • The equipment was acquired recently by Crescent at a cost of $180,000 (its fair value) and was expected to have a useful life of 12 years with no salvage value at the end of its life. • Because the lease term is only nine years, the asset does have an expected residual value at the end of the lease term of $50,995. • Crescent seeks a 10% return on its lease investments. By this arrangement, the lease is deemed to be a finance lease. Note: Use tables, Excel, or a financial calculator. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, PVA of $1, FVAD of $1 and PVAD of $1) Required: 1.
