Question

Khaleesi Corporation (“Khaleesi”) leases dragonglass weapons to customers. She gains a loyal following of customers because dragonglass is of limited supply but high demand due to its usefulness for the upcoming winter. Further, Khaleesi tends to offer more favorable financing terms than competitors offering substitutive products (e.g., Lannister, LLC).

Khaleesi was recently approached by the Lords of the North, Inc. (“the North”) which is interested in leasing a substantial stock of weapons over a potentially lengthy period of time. The North has indicated a willingness to pay any rate that Khaleesi Corporation demands for its dragonglass products, but generally receives an interest rate of 12% on all other borrowing transactions. The North’s management are a very noble group, so payments are reasonably assured. Further, there are no material cost uncertainties.

Khaleesi has gathered its council to discuss entering into such a contract with the North and has invited you to provide financial council. Khaleesi’s board has proposed several alternative sets of lease terms (below) and would like you determine what the North’s annual payments will be under each scenario, if payments are made at the beginning of the period.

Explanation / Answer

1. Given In question

Fair Value of assets=365760

N=11 year

Desired interest rate =10%

Calculation of annual lease payment in option

=Fair value of assets -Residual Value/(1+desired Interest rate)n

(1-(1/(1+Desired interest rate)n)/Desired interest rate

=365760/6.495

=56314

2.Calculation of Annual lease payment Under 2nd option

Here given

Given In question

Fair Value of assets=365760

N=11 year

Desired interest rate =10%

Residual value=24350

Calculation of annual lease payment in option

=Fair value of assets -Residual Value/(1+desired Interest rate)n

(1-(1/(1+Desired interest rate)n)/Desired interest rate

=(365760-8553)/6.495

=55000

3. Caculation under 3rd option

Given In question

Fair Value of assets=365760

N=6 year

Desired interest rate =13%

Residual Value=24350

Calculation of annual lease payment in option

=Fair value of assets -Residual Value/(1+desired Interest rate)n

(1-(1/(1+Desired interest rate)n)/Desired interest rate

=88570
