basis over their 3-year life. It can borrow $4,800,000, the purchase price, at interest rate of 10%
and buy the tools. The loan payments would be made at the end of each year. If it decides to
lease or it can make 3 equal end-of-year lease payments of $2,100,000 each and lease them.
The loan obtained from the bank is a 3-year simple interest loan, with interest paid at the end of
the year. The firm's tax rate is 40%. The Total Cash Outflows from the Cost of Purchase are the
