7.        COMMITMENTS


In connection with the purchase our 400,000 square-foot facility on 40-acres, in 2015, we entered into a 15-year lease with the seller, a non-related third party, who leases 181,300 square feet, or 45.3% of the facility.  The lease is being accounted for as an operating lease.


The cost of the leased space upon acquisition, and as of February 28, 2019, was estimated at $10,159,000.  The accumulated depreciation associated with the leased assets was $1,139,700 and $789,100 for the fiscal years ended February 28, 2019 and 2018, respectively.  Both the leased assets and accumulated depreciation are included in property, plant and equipment-net in the balance sheets.


The lessee pays $112,200 per month, through the lease anniversary date of December 2019, with a 2.0% annual increase adjustment on each anniversary date thereafter.  The lease terms allow for one five-year extension, which is not a bargain renewal option, at the expiration of the 15-year term.  Revenues associated with the lease are being recorded on a straight-line basis over the initial lease term and are reported in other income on the statements of earnings.


The following table reflects future minimum rental income payments under the non-cancellable portion of this lease as of February 28, 2019:

At February 28, 2019, we had outstanding purchase commitments for inventory totaling $13,324,800, which is due during fiscal year 2020.  Of these commitments, $8,825,600 were with Usborne, $4,489,400 with various Kane Miller publishers and the remaining $9,800 with other suppliers.


Rent expense for the year ended February 28, 2019 and 2018, was $18,800 and $17,200, respectively.  The current lease on the property extends through 2021.
