Tara wants to drive a small economy car priced at $19 800 before taxes. PST is 7% and GST is 5%. She has $3500 to use as a down payment for buying or leasing. If she buys the car, she will get a 4 year loan at 8.5% to pay for it. If she leases the car, she wants to buy the car at the end of the lease. The lease will be for 3 years at 8.5% and the residual value will be 43% of the original price. Tara will also need a 2 year loan (at 8.5%) at the end of the lease to buy the car.

(c) Name two benefits of leasing the car instead of buying.

(a) What is the total cost of buying the car?

(b) What is the total cost of owning the car if Tara leases it first?

(b) Ted also considers leasing the truck (still priced at $36 699.00) for three years. He is able to use the old truck valued at $6800.00 plus $3500.00 as the down payment. The lease rate is 7.3%, and the residual value is set at $22 499.00. What is the total cost of the lease? How much is the monthly lease payment?

(e) What are some advantages of buying rather than leasing the truck that Ted might consider?

What is the total cost of the truck after the loan for the residual value is paid off?(d) Which is more economical - buying the truck (#a) or leasing the truck and then buying it later?
