1. You have a choice of leasing a truck for six years at $9,000/year, paid at the end of each year, or buying the truck for $44,000. At the end of six years the truck would be worthless. The interest rate is 5.5%. Would you lease or buy?
2. A similar situation as #1: lease for $9,000/year, or buy for $44,000, but if you buy the truck, and pay to maintain the truck (e.g. change oil and other fluids, replace windshield wipers, belts, tires, etc.), which are $500/year, paid at the end of each year, then at the end of six years, the truck would be worth $2,000 and you could sell the truck. Would you lease or buy?
15.
Your landscaping company can lease a truck for $8,000 a year (paid at year-end) for 6 years. It can buy the truck for $40,000. The truck will be valueless after 6 years.
a. If the interest rate your company can earn on its funds is 7%, is it cheaper to buy or lease?
b. If the lease payments are an annuity due, is it cheaper to buy or lease?
Your firm needs to invest in a new delivery truck. The life expectancy of the delivery truck is five years.
You can purchase a new delivery truck for an upfront cost of $250 000, or you can lease a truck from
