The Jacobs Company desires to lease a numerically controlled milling machine costing $200,000. Jacobs has asked both First Manufacturers Bank Leasing Corporation and Commercial Associates, Inc. (a commercial finance company) to quote an annual lease rate.
Both leasing companies now require a 20 percent pretax rate of return on this type of lease. Suppose First Manufacturers estimates the machine's salvage value at the end of the lease to be $30,000 and Commercial Associates estimates salvage to be $80,000.
Based on this information, what annual (beginning-of-year) lease payments will each leasing company require if the lease term is 5 years?
