    Which of the following is potentially a benefit to the lessee if they lease as opposed to buy?
    ? Avoiding tax exhaustion
    ? Attracting lease customers that may not have been otherwise possible
    ? Exploiting a low cost of capital
    ? Potential future scrap proceeds

    Dear sir,
    For option C, they have said exploiting a low cost of capital is a potential benefit to purchaser, not the lessee
    Can u pls explain how?
    Thank you

    Buying involves borrowing a large amount of money at the start of the investment, and the lower the cost of money (i.e. cost of capital) is then the more attractive it is to buy.
