The financial lease is a 3 year lease with annual lease payments of S6,500 paid at the beginning of each year (a the beginning of each year). The manager can buy the widget for $20,000 and sell it again in 3 years for $5,000. A bank will loan si 5,000 and the loan will be fully amortized at 10% over 3 years with annual payments. The IRS will allow the widget to be depreciated over 10 years. The marginal tax rate is 15%. The manager requires at least a 10% pre-tax return on capital. Assume that the inflation rate is 0%.

Explanation / Answer

As per rules, I will answer the first 4 subparts

Q11. Depreciation value = 20000/10

Tax saving on above = 15%*2000 = $300

Q12. The after tax terminal value at the end of year 3=

Sale value = 5000

Book value at the end of 3 years= 20000-2000*3 = 14000

Hence capital loss= 14000-5000 = 9000

Tax saving on capital loss= 9000*15% = 1350

After tax terminal value = 5000+1350 = $6350

Q13 PV of tax savings on depreciation

= 300*(1-(1+r)^-n)/r =

=300*(1-1.085^-3)/ 0.085

= $766

Q14 NPV of purchasing the widegt is computed using the NPV function in excel as =NPV(8.5%, Cash flows from year 1-3) - initial cost

= -14262

Year Initial cost Salvage value Tax saving on depreciation Instalment Tax saving on capital loss Net cash flows 0 -20000 -20000 1 300 300 2 300 300 3 5000 300 1350 6650 NPV=($14,262.33)
