SFAS 13 Discrepancy (Leases)

(FV is Fair Value; RV is Residual Value; PV is present value, IIR is the Implicit Interest Rate)

If we assume that the FV = the sales or purchase price as it says is typical in section 5c

1) Paragraph 5K basically says that PV of minimum lease payments + RV = FV
2) Paragraph 17C basically says that PV of minimum lease payments = sales price
we get this:

PV(MLP) @<hidden> = purchase price = PV(MLP+RV)@<hidden>


What am I missing here?

BTW- This is not homework. I was told to post my question here, nobody can seem to give me an answer...
