Answer:
a. In order to determine the present value of lease we can use the same APR as the car loan (7%). We can use the present value of an annuity formula:
PV = monthly payment x annuity factor
- monthly payment = $509
- PV annuity factor, 0.58333%, 48 periods = 41.76344
PV of the annuity = $509 x 41.76344 = $21,257.59
total present value of lease contract = $21,257.59 + $109 = $21,366.59
b. the present value of purchasing the car is $40,000 - $28,000/1.07⁴ = $40,000 - $21,361.07 = $18,638.93
c. the break even resale price = (sales price - PV of lease) x (1 + 7%/12)⁴⁸ = ($40,000 - $21,366.59) x (1 + 0.07/12)⁴⁸ = $18,633.41 x 1.32205 = $24,634.37

Explanation:
The computation of the ending inventory and the beginning inventory is shown below:
Ending inventory is as follows
December = 438,00 units × 5.5 gallons × 15% =
= 36,135 units
January = 41,000× 5.5 gallons × 15%
= 33,825 units
February = 50,250 units × 5.5 gallons × 15%
= 41,457 units
And, the beginning inventory for January is December ending inventory i.e 36,135 units
