    Hi
    I wana ask regarding finance lease calculation Please

    Year Cash Flow D.F10% P.V
    2003-6 150000 3.170 475500

    According to my limited knowledge , I was thinking we start (Year 3 + Year 0) This means
    Year 3 Annuity table 2.487 +1=3.487 * 150000=523050.

    Can you please help me to rectify the error. Thanks

    2nd question regarding operating lease , They added up discount factor like (Year 3 + Year 0) Year 3 Annuity table 2.487 + 1=3.487

    but they didn’t subtract 3.791-.909=2.882 but they put 3.170 * 42000=133140.

    Hope you understand what i wana say because i couldn’t write whole question.I am only confused in working.
    I am looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks

    In future please also give the name of the question (because although I think you are referring to “Leaminger” it is question 51 in the current edition of the BPP Revision Kit 🙂 )

    Time 0 is 2002 (because the first flow mentioned – the purchase price – is 2002).

    Therefore 2003 is time 1, and the flows are therefore time 1 to time 4. It is a 4 year annuity starting in 1 years time, and therefore you get the present value by multiplying by the 4 year annuity factor of 3.170. (2003 to 2006 is 4 years in total)

    With the operating lease, since the payments are at the start of years, the first payment is immediately, followed by 3 payments at times 1 to 3.
    The discount factor for the immediate payment is 1, the discount factor for the payments from time 1 to time 3 is the 3 year annuity facto which is 2.487. So the total discount factor is 3.487.

    I really do suggest that you watch the free lectures on annuities, and especially the free lecture on lease and buy.
