Question
Suppose that you have the option to lease a new Mitsubishi Eclipse, which you otherwise
intend to buy. You must put $2000 down, and will make payments of $307 per month for
48 months, at the beginning of each month. Upon termination, you can purchase the car for
an additional payment of $7000 at lease expiration. Alternatively, the dealer has offered to
finance the purchase at 6.7% APR for 48 months, with nothing down, yielding payments of
$467 per month at the end of each month. If you choose to purchase the car using dealer
financing, rather than choosing the lease-purchase option, how much have you saved (+) or
lost (-) on the effective purchase price of the car in dollars and cents. (make your answer
positive when you save, negative when you are paying more.)
