You work for a nuclear research laboratory that is contemplating leasing a diagnostic scanner (leasing is a very common practice with expensive, high-tech equipment). The scanner costs $6,900,000. Because of radiation contamination, it will actually be completely valueless in four years. You can lease it for $1,960,000 per year for four years. Assume that the tax rate is 35 percent. You can borrow at 6 percent before taxes. Assume that the scanner will be depreciated as three-year property under MACRS.
What is the NAL of the lease?
