No residual value is expected at the end of the lease. ●   Shamrock must reimburse United each year for any real estate taxes incurred for the year. Last year, the cost of real estate taxes was $800, though these costs vary from year to year. ●   Shamrock must make a payment of $500 with the rental payment each period to cover the insurance United has on the warehouse. ●   Shamrock paid legal fees of $3,000 in executing the lease.
