Chapter 19, Problem 5P
Reynolds Construction (RC) needs a piece of equipment that costs $100,000. The equipment has an economic life of 2 years and no residual value. The equipment will not require maintenance because its useful life is so short. RC can borrow the full cost of the equipment at an interest rate of 8% with payments due at the end of the year.
Alternatively, RC can lease the equipment for $55,000 with payments due at the end of the year. Assume RC chooses the lease, which is a finance lease for financial reporting purposes. Answer the following questions. (Hint: See Table 19-1.)
- a. What is the initial lease liability that must be reported on the
balance sheet ? - b. What is the initial right-of-use asset?
- c. What will RC report as an interest expense at Year 1?
- d. What will RC report as an amortization expense at Year 1?
- e. What will RC report as the lease liability at Year 1?
- f. What will RC report as the right-of-use asset at Year 1?

- Your company is currently replacing some of its aging stamping machines. Equipment can be purchased for $300,000; it has a useful life of 10 years and will be depreciated straight-line to zero. After 10 years it can be sold for $25,000. Another option for your company is to lease this Equipment at $36,000 per year. Your company can deduct lease payments as an operating expense when they are paid as this will be an operational lease. Your company borrowing rate is 8% and your tax rate is 25%. Should you lease or purchase equipment? Why?arrow_forwardDelamont Transport Company (DTC) is evaluating the merits of leasing versus purchasing a truck with a 4- year life that costs $40,000 and falls into the MACRS 3 - year class. If the firm borrows and buys the truck, the loan rate would be 10%, and the loan would be amortized over the truck's 4-year life, so the interest expense for taxes would decline over time. The loan payments would be made at the end of each year. The truck will be used for 4 years, at the end of which time it will be sold at an estimated residual value of $10,000. If DTC buys the truck, it would purchase a maintenance contract that costs $1,000 per year, payable at the end of each year. The lease terms, which include maintenance, call for a $10,000 lease payment (4 payments total) at the beginning of each year. DTC's tax rate is 40%. What is the net advantage to leasing? ( Note: Assume MACRS rates for Years 1 to 4 are 0.3333, 0.4445, 0.15, and 0.07.). $849 • $896 • $945. $999 •$1,047arrow_forwardThe smiths are not sure whether they should buy or lease equipment. A five year lease could be arranged with annual lease payment of 5000$ payable at beginning of each year. The tax shield from lease payment is available at year end. The company tax rate is 25%. The equipment would cost $25000 and has a five year expected lifespan, and no residual value is expected. if purchased, asset would be financed through a term loan at 12%. The loan calls for equally payment to be made at end of end year for five years. Suppose that the equipment would qualify for CCA on a straight-line basis over five years. Required: 1. Calculate the cash flows for each financing alternate. 2. Which alternative is the most economical.arrow_forward
- Carolina Trucking Company (CTC) is evaluating a potential lease agreement on a truck that costs $40,000 and falls into the MACRS 3-year class. The applicable MACRS depreciation rates are 0.33, 0.45, 0.15, and 0.07. The loan rate would be 10 percent, if CTC decided to borrow money and buy the asset rather than lease it. The truck has a 4-year economic life, and its estimated residual value is $10,000. If CTC buys the truck, it would purchase a maintenance contract that costs $1,000 per year, payable at the end of each year. The lease terms, which include maintenance, call for a $10,000 lease payment at the beginning of each year. CTC’s tax rate is 40 percent.

Either you can take out a five-year lease on the replacement cabs for $503 per month per cab, or you can purchase the cabs outright for $30,200, in which case the cabs will last eight years. You must return the cabs to the leasing company at the end of the lease. The leasing company is responsible for all maintenance costs, but if you purchase the cabs, you will buy a maintenance contract that will cost $108 per month for the life of each cab. Each cab will generate revenues of $1,072 per month. Assume the cost of capital is fixed at 12.5%. (Hint: Make sure to round all intermediate calculations to at least four decimal places.) a. Calculate the NPV per cab of both possibilities: purchasing the cabs or leasing them. b. Calculate the equivalent monthly benefit of both opportunities. c. If you are leasing a cab, you have the opportunity to buy the used cab after five years. Assume that in five years a…arrow_forwardA firm can lease a truck for 4 years at a cost of $38,000 annually. The lease includes maintenance. The firm can instead buy a truck at a cost of $88,000, with annual maintenance expenses of $18,000. The truck has no salvage value at the end of 4 years. What is the equivalent annual cost of buying and maintaining the truck if the discount rate is 10% Round your answer to the nearest dollar and report it without the $ symboliarrow_forward
- To finance some manufacturing tools it needs for the next 3 years, Waldrop Corporation is considering a leasing arrangement. The tools will be obsolete and worthless after 3 years. The firm will depreciate the cost of the tools on a straight-line basis over their 3-year life. It can borrow $4,800,000, the purchase price, at 10% and buy the tools, or it can make 3 equal end-of-year lease payments of $2,100,000 each and lease them. The loan obtained from the bank is a 3-year simple interest loan, with interest paid at the end of the year. The firm's tax rate is 25%. Annual maintenance costs associated with ownership are estimated at $240,000, but this cost would be borne by the lessor if it leases. What is the net advantage to leasing (NAL), in thousands?

The company can issue bonds at an interest rate of 6 percent. The corporate tax rate is 21 percent. What is the NAL of the lease? (A negative answer should be indicated by a minus sign.

- Your company is trying to decide whether it should purchase a copier from Xerox or lease it. The copier has an expected life of 6 years, after which it has only marginal value (you can ignore any residual value). If you purchase it, the price is $145,000, payable now, and you would have to pay an annual service charge of $8,000. If you lease it, you would have an annual payment of $36,000 each year (for 6 years), which includes service. The lease payment and the annual service charge occur at the beginning of each year. The interest rate is 3.8%. Which option is least costly?arrow_forwardA firm wants the use of a machine that costs $135,000. If the firm purchases the equipment, it will depreciate the equipment at the rate of $27,000 a year for four years, at which time the equipment will have a residual value of $27,000. Maintenance will be $2,500 a year. The firm could lease the equipment for four years for an annual lease payment of $32,460. Currently, the firm is in the 40 percent income tax bracket. Determine the firm's cash inflows and outflows from purchasing the equipment and from leasing. Use a minus sign to enter negative values, if any. If the answer is zero, enter "0".
