Concept explainers
N and M Corp, is considering leasing a new machine for $25,000 per year. The lease arrangement calls for a 5-year lease with an option to purchase the machine at the end of the lease for $3,500. The firm is in the 34% tax bracket. What is the present value of the lease outflows, including the purchase option, if lease payments are made at the end of each year and if the after-tax cost of debt is 7%?
To determine:
Present value of lease cash flows.
Introduction:
The Present Value is the present sum of future money at a discounted rate of interest.
Explanation of Solution
The N and M corp. is considering leasing a new machine and the value of lease is $25,000 per year for the period of 5 years. At the end of 5 years, the corp. can purchase the machine at a price of $3,600. It is also given that the firm comes under the tax bracket of 34 percent.
The after tax cost of debt is 7 percent and thus the after tax cash outflow from the lease can be calculated by the following formula:
Thus, the after tax cash outflow from the lease is $16,500.
Present Value of the lease payments can be calculated by the use of the discounting method as follows:
Here, the number of years N is 5 years, Interest rate is 7 percent and the PMT is -$16,500. Thus, the PV can be calculated as follows:
The present value of the lease payments at the end of the year is $67,653.26.
The present value of the end-of-lease purchase can be calculated as follows:
The present value of the end-of-lease purchase is $2,495.45.
Thus, the present value of all cash outflows can be calculated by summating the two as follows:
Thus, the present value of all cash outflows is $70,148.71.

- (1) Assume that the lease payments were actually 280,000 per year, that Consolidated Leasing is also in the 25% tax bracket, and that it also forecasts a 200,000 residual value. Also, to furnish the maintenance support, it would have to purchase a maintenance contract from the manufacturer at the same 20,000 annual cost, again paid in advance. Consolidated Leasing can obtain an expected 10% pre-tax return on investments of similar risk. What are its NPV and IRR of leasing under these conditions? (2) What do you think the lessors NPV would be if the lease payment were set at 260,000 per year? (Hint: The lessors cash flows would be a mirror image of the lessees cash flows.)arrow_forwardOwens Company leased equipment for 4 years at 50,000 a year with an option to renew the lease for 6 years at 2,000 per month or to purchase the equipment for 25,000 (a price considerably less than the expected fair value) after the initial lease term of 4 years. Why would this lease qualify as a finance lease?arrow_forwardLease versus Buy Consider the data in Problem 19-1. Assume that RCs tax rate is 40% and that the equipments depreciation would be 100 per year. If the company leased the asset on a 2-year lease, the payment would be 110 at the beginning of each year. If RC borrowed and bought, the bank would charge 10% interest on the loan. In either case, the equipment is worth nothing after 2 years and will be discarded. Should RC lease or buy the equipment?arrow_forward
- Big Sky Mining Company must install 1.5 million of new machinery in its Nevada mine. It can obtain a bank loan for 100% of the purchase price, or it can lease the machinery. Assume that the following facts apply. (1) The machinery falls into the MACRS 3-year class. (2) Under either the lease or the purchase, Big Sky must pay for insurance, property taxes, and maintenance. (3) The firms tax rate is 25%. (4) The loan would have an interest rate of 15%. It would be nonamortizing, with only interest paid at the end of each year for four years and the principal repaid at Year 4. (5) The lease terms call for 400,000 payments at the end of each of the next 4 years. (6) Big Sky Mining has no use for the machine beyond the expiration of the lease, and the machine has an estimated residual value of 250,000 at the end of the 4th year. a.

- Kohers Inc is considering a leasing arrangement to finance some manufacturing tools that it needs for the next 3 years. The tools will be obsolete and worthless after 3 years. The firm will depreciate the cost of the tools on a straight-line basis over their 3 year life. It can borrow $4,800,000, the purchase price, at 10% and buy the tools, or it can make 3 equal end-of-year lease payments of $2,100,000 each and lease them. The loan obtained from the bank is a 3-year simple interest loan, with interest paid at the end of the year. The firm's tax rate is 40%.
