accounting for finance lease

MMoses9y ago
suppose n 1 January 2016 ABC Company hired a machine under a finance lease. The cash price of the machine was $3.5 million and the present value of the minimum lease payments was $3.3 million. Installments of $700,000 are payable annually in advance with the first payment made on 1 January 2016. The interest rate implicit in the lease is 6%. What amount will appear under non-current liabilities in respect of this lease and the way it would be presented on the face of the statement of financial position of ABC Company as at 31 December 2017?
