Answer:

Lease payment: $ 162,000.371

Explanation:

Ace Leasing wants to yield 8% on theri investment:

F0 (800,000)

Then at F4 It will receive the bargain option of 300,000

we solve for its PV:

$\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV$

Maturity $300,000.00

time 4.00

rate 0.08000

$\frac{300000}{(1 + 0.08)^{4} } = PV$

PV 220,508.9558

The difference will be handled throguh the lease payment:

800,000 - 220,508.96 = 579.491,04‬

We solve for the installment of a 4 years annuity-due at % discount rate:

$PV \div \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} (1+r)= C\\$

PV 579,491.04

time 4

rate 0.08

$579491.04 \div \frac{1-(1+0.08)^{-4} }{0.08}(1+0.08) = C\\$

C $ 162,000.371

Answer:

Amount to be recovered = $650,000

Present value of bargain purchase option = $150,000 * PV factor at 6% for 6th period

= $150,000 * 0.704961 = $105,744

Amount to be recoverd through periodic lease payment = $650,000 - $105,744 = $544,256

Annual lease payment = $544,256 / Cumulative PV factor for annuity due at 6% for 6 periods

= $544,256 / 5.212364

= $104,416
