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.
(1) The machinery falls into the MACRS 3-year class.
(2) Under either the lease or the purchase, Big Sky must pay for insurance, property
taxes, and maintenance.
(3) The firm’s tax rate is 25%.
(4) The loan would have an interest rate of 15%. It would be nonamortizing, with only
interest paid at the end of each year for four years and the principal repaid at Year 4.
(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.

Sadik Industries must install $1 million of new machinery in its Texas plant. It can obtain a bank loan for 100% of the required amount. Alternatively, a Texas investment banking firm that represents a group of investors believes that it can arrange for a lease financing plan. Assume that these facts apply:
The equipment falls in the MACRS 3-year class.
Estimated maintenance expenses are $48,000 per year.
The firm's tax rate is 34%.
If the money is borrowed, the bank loan will be at a rate of 12%, amortized in six equal installments at the end of each year.
The tentative lease terms call for payments of $280,000 at the end of each year for 3 years. The lease is a guideline lease.
Under the proposed lease terms, the lessee must pay for insurance, property taxes, and maintenance.
Sadik must use the equipment if it is to continue in business, so it will almost certainly want to acquire the property at the end of the lease. If it does, then under the lease terms it can purchase the…

- 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)arrow_forwardASB is considering leasing a new machine. The lease calls for 9 payments of $1,403 per year with the first payment occurring immediately. The machine costs $8,683 to buy. The present value of CCA tax shield is $998.

The firm is in the 27% tax bracket, and its after-tax cost of debt is 9%. The terms of the lease and purchase plans are as follows: Lease The leasing arrangement requires end-of-year payments of $59,000 over five years. All maintenance costs will be paid by the lessor; insurance and other costs will be borne by the lessee. The lessee will exercise its option to purchase the asset for $20,000 at termination of the lease. Ignore any future tax benefit associated with the purchase of the equipment at the end of year 5 under the lease option. Purchase If the firm purchases the machine, its cost of $200,000 will be financed with a five-year, 17% loan requiring equal end-of-year payments of $62,513. The machine will be depreciated under MACRS using a 5-year recovery period. (See LOADING... for the applicable depreciation percentages.)…arrow_forward

Under the proposed lease terms, the Sadik must pay for insurance, property taxes, and maintenance. Sadik must use the equipment if it is to continue in business, so it will almost certainly want to acquire the property at the end of the lease. If it does, then under the lease terms it can purchase the machinery at its fair market value at Year 3. The best estimate of this market value is $220,000, but it could be much higher or lower under certain circumstances.
