Explanation / Answer

Present worth of purchase option

=-320000/((1+0.1)^0)-8500/((1+0.1)^1)-8500/((1+0.1)^2)-8500/((1+0.1)^3)-8500/((1+0.1)^4)- 8500/((1+0.1)^5)+80000/((1+0.1)^5)

= -$302548

Present worth of lease option

=-40000/((1+0.1)^0)-7000/((1+0.1)^1)
= $-46364

Salvage value of purchase option = $49673.7

=80000/((1+0.1)^5) = $49673.7

Since the PW of lease is higher than purchase it is better to lease
