Leasing calculation
5y ago#1The lease payments occur at the start of each year.
The start of the first year is time 0, and for four payments it is therefore time 0 to 4.
The tax is payable one year in arrears and so the tax for the first year is calculated at the end of the first year (time 1) but paid one year later (i.e. time 2).
$10,800 is the tax saving on the lease payments 30% x 36,000 = $10,800.
