The smiths are not sure whether they should buy or lease equipment. A five year lease could be arranged with annual
lease payment of 5000$ payable at beginning of each year. The tax shield from lease payment is available at year end.
The company tax rate is 25%. The equipment would cost $25000 and has a five year expected lifespan, and no residual
value is expected. if purchased, asset would be financed through a term loan at 12%. The loan calls for equally payment to
be made at end of end year for five years. Suppose that the equipment would qualify for CCA on a straight-line basis
over five years. Required:
1. Calculate the cash flows for each financing alternate.
2. Which alternative is the most economical.
Your firm is considering leasing a new computer. The lease lasts for 4 years. The lease calls for 5 payments of $450 per year with the first payment occurring immediately. The computer would cost $5,900 to buy and would be depreciated using the straight-line method to zero salvage over 4 years. The firm can borrow at a rate of 7%. The corporate tax rate is 21%. What is the NPV of the lease?
A builder is offering $107, 960 loans for his properties at 9 percent for 25 years. Monthly payments are based on current market rates of 9.5 percent and are to be fully amortized over 25 years. The property would normally sell for $120,000 without any special financing. Required: a. At what price should the builder sell the properties to earn, in effect, the market rate of interest on the loan? Assume that the buyer would have the loan for the entire term of 25 years. b. At what price should the builder sell the properties to earn, in effect, the market rate of interest on the loan if the property is resold after 10 years and the loan repaid?
