    Agro-Chem, Inc. is a regional producer of agricultural chemicals based in Houston Texas that needs help making a lease versus purchase decision. By understanding the material presented, we will be able to come to a decision. However, after reviewing the information presented, there are a few problems that need to be investigated before finalizing our recommendation. Agro-Chem, Inc. chose to go with the financial manager’s idea of using a discount rate of 14% (average risk) to figure out the present value costs of leasing and purchasing even though the assistant treasure suggested a 12% (low risk) discount rate. Agro-Chem, Inc. brought in the company’s CPA to help settle the debate but this only led to further confusion and disagreement concerning the appropriate discount rate which concerns us and should be taken into consideration. In addition it concerns us that the salvage value is unclear for the end of the fourth year. The probabilities of the equipment’s residual values, which are pretty extreme, are 0.25 which concludes that the situation could vary greatly. Another problem is that Lonestar’s executives think that the equipment’s residual value will be larger than expected as a result of possible expansion. This is a risk factor that has to be analyzed because relocating will affect the final decision. Due to these issues, we have come up with solutions to fix these problems as well as a final decision concerning the lease versus purchase decision.…

    “Management has decided to acquire a new asset that costs $200,000. The estimated economic life of the asset is five years, but the firm wants the use of the asset only for three years. If the firm purchases the asset, it anticipates selling it at the end of three years for $50,000. The firm may lease the asset for $55,000 a year paid at the end of each year. The lease does not include maintenance. It is estimated that annual maintenance initially will be $5,000 (paid at the end of the year), but that cost will increase by $1,000 each year as the asset ages. The firm could purchase the asset with a five-year loan of $200,000. The loan will be retired in five payments of $40,000 unless the equipment is sold, in which case the loan must be paid off at closing of the sale. The interest rate is 10 percent and is paid at the end of each year on the balance owed. The annual interest payment is provided below. If the firm does purchase the asset, it will enter into a maintenance agreement with the manufacturer that costs $5,000 a year. The annual depreciation expense is provided below. The firm’s tax bracket is 40 percent. Based on the above information, should the firm borrow and purchase or should the…
