A contractor is considering whether to buy or lease a new machine for her layout site work. Buying a new machine will cost $120,000, with a residual value of $12,000 after the machine's useful life of eight years. On the other hand, leasing requires an annual payment of $30,000, which occurs at the start of each year. MARR is 20%. On the basis of an internal rate of return analysis, which alternative should the contractor be advised to accept?
