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 $6,300,000, and it would be depreciated straight-line to zero over three years. Because of radiation contamination, it will actually be completely valueless in three years. You can lease it for $2,259,000 per year for three years. Assume that the tax rate is 35 percent. You can borrow at 12 percent before taxes. |
What is the NAL of the lease? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) |
