(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.

MTN is trying to decide whether to lease or buy some new equipment for its tool and die operations. The equipment costs ¢1.5 million has a 8-year life, and will be worthless after the 8 years.

A company is considering leasing a new equipment. The lease lasts for 5 years. The lease calls for 5 payments of $58,000 per year with the first payment occurring immediately. The equipment would cost $250,000 to buy and would be straight-line depreciated to a zero salvage value over 5 years. The actual salvage value is negligible because of technological obsolescence. The firm can borrow at a rate of 6%. The corporate tax rate is 21 percent. What is the after-tax cash flow from leasing relative to the after-tax cash flow from purchasing in year 0? -$2,645.01 -$2,820.71 -$2,996.41 -$3,172.11 -$3,347.81
Next Corporation needs a piece of equipment that costs $270 million. Next can either lease the equipment or borrow $270 million from a local bank and buy the equipment. If the equipment is leased, the lease would not have to be capitalized. Assume that Next’s tax rate is 35% and that the equipment’s depreciation would be $90 million per year. If the company leased the asset on a 3-year lease, the payment would be $105 million at the beginning of each year. If Next borrowed and bought, the bank would charge 12% interest on the loan. In either case, the equipment is worth nothing after 3 years and will be discarded. Should Next lease or buy the equipment? (solve in excel)
