Car Lease vs.

Buy Example Step 1: Calc monthly pmt of buying


List Price Step 2: Calc PV of leasing
Acura TLX $ 4,000 a Step 3: Compare pmts
Step 4: Compare PV of leasing v buying
Option 1 Buy the car with a 36-month loan. Assume r = 5% Step 5: To compare time, assume sell car after 3 yrs.
# Months Loan 72 b Use blue book values, probabilities and take W.A.
R= 2.0% c Step 6: Determine PV of selling in 3 year
Down payment $ 3,000 d Step 7: Calculate loss of sale after 3 year
Principal $ 10,000 e Step 8: Compare net cost of buy/sell and lease
Monthly payment $ 148 f Step 9: Take into acct oppty cost of $10k if invested in mrkt
