Answer:
You should buy the car.
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the worksheet that shows calculations of the present values of the Lease and Buy Options.
In the attached excel file, we have:
Net present value of Lease Option = $3,654.01
Total present value of Buy Option = $4,135.47
Difference = Total present value of Buy Option - Present value of Lease Option = $481.46
The Difference above shows that the total present value of Buy Option is greater than the net present value of Lease Option by $481.46.
Since the total present value of Buy Option of $4,135.47 is greater than the net present value of Lease Option of $3,654.01, you should buy the car.

The price of the stock is expected to be $188.16 in 1 year.
Explanation:
This can be determined as follows:
Current price of the stock = Expected next dividend / Expected return = $24.87 / 15.2% = $163.62
Expected stock price in 1 year = Current price of the stock * (100% + Expected return)^Number of year = $163.62 * (100% + 15.2%)^1 = $188.16
Therefore, the price of the stock is expected to be $188.16 in 1 year.
The answer would be true. The reason for that is because excel automatically saves what you added on the sheet.
