Answer:

this is an operating lease, so you do not have to calculate present value, all you need to calculate is depreciation expense:

January 1, 2020

Dr Cash 37,000

    Cr Unearned revenue 37,000

December 31, 2020

Dr Unearned revenue 37,000

    Cr Lease revenue 37,000

December 31, 2020

Dr Depreciation expense 29,000

    Cr Accumulated depreciation, equipment 29,000

$232,000 / 8 years = $29,000
