Lease versus Buy
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:
The machinery falls into the MACRS
3-year class. (The depreciation rates
for Year 1 through Year 4 are equal to
0.3333, 0.4445, 0.1481, and
0.0741.)
Under either the lease or the
purchase, Big Sky must pay for
insurance, property taxes, and
maintenance.
The firm's tax rate is 25%.
The loan would have an interest rate
of 10%. It would be nonamortizing,
with only interest paid at the end of
each year for four years and the
principal repaid at Year 4.
i. The lease terms call for $400,000
payments at the end of each of the
next 4 years.
Big Sky Mining has no use for the
machine beyond the expiration of the
lease, and the machine has an
estimated residual value of $200,000
at the end of the 4th year.
Answer is $1500. But how to get it?

- 9. Is bundling profitable? Suppose that Shen is the owner of the only nonmotorized water sports rental shop on a small lake in Michigan. At Shen's shop, customers can rent a variety of items such as canoes, paddle boats, tubes, and windsurfers. Assume that the marginal cost of renting out any of these items is $3 per item. Moreover, there are only two types of customers-college students and retired people-and there are equal numbers of each type of customer. The following table shows the valuations of both customer types for paddle boats and kayaks.
