The buyer of a piece of real estate is often given the option of buying down the loan. This option gives the buyer a choice of loan terms in which various combinations of interest rates and discount points are offered. The choice of how many points and what rate is optimal is often a matter of how long the buyer intends to keep the property.
Darrell Frye is planning to buy an office building at a cost of $987,000. He must pay 10% down and has a choice of financing terms. He can select from a 9% 30-year loan and pay 4 discount points, a 9.25% 30-year loan and pay 3 discount points, or a 9.5% 30-year loan and pay 2 discount points. Darrell expects to hold the building for three years and then sell it. Except for the three rate and discount point combinations, all other costs of purchasing and selling are fixed and identical.

- A case study analysis of leasing business equipment compared to purchasing the same equipment.How do you determine whether you should lease or buy a piece of equipment for your business? Let's assume you're faced with the following lease-or-buy decision:You can purchase a $50,000 piece of equipment by putting 25 percent down and paying off the balance at 10 percent interest with four annual installments of $11,830. The equipment will be used in your business for eight years, after which it can be sold for scrap for $2,500.The alternative is that you can lease the same equipment for eight years at an annual rent of $8,500, the first payment of which is due on delivery. You'll be responsible for the equipment's maintenance costs during the lease.You expect that your combined federal and state income tax rate will be 40 percent for the entire period at issue. You further assume that your cost of capital is 6 percent (the 10 percent financing rate adjusted by your tax rate).Question:Using…arrow_forwardThe buyer of a piece of real estate is often given the option of buying down the loan.
