Solution
To calculate the interest rate implicit in the lease, we need to find the rate that makes the present value of the lease payments and the guaranteed residual value equal to the fair value of the leased asset.
The lease payments are 15,000. The fair value of the leased asset is $109,444.
We can set up the following equation and solve for the interest rate (i):
25,000/(1+i)^2 + 25,000/(1+i)^4 + 15,000/(1+i)^5 = $109,444
This equation can be solved using a financial calculator or spreadsheet software. However, it's not straightforward to solve it manually.
Given the answer choices, we can plug each option into the equation and see which one makes the left-hand side closest to $109,444.
After doing this, we find that the interest rate implicit in the lease is approximately 10%.

You are working for an equipment leasing company, and your boss has asked you to calculate the half-yearly lease payments for new equipment for a client. The cost of the equipment is $68,000 and the lease term is 8 years. The interest rate is 11.2% p.a. compounding semi-annually. The lease requires lease payments that are the same every half-year, except for the final payment which is a residual/lump sum payment of $9,000. Assuming the lump sum payment is made in the final half-year period (16), calculate the half-yearly lease amount for the other 15 periods. Type your answer as a positive number into the box in dollar and cents (i.e. 2 decimal places and no negative (-) symbol).(Ignore taxes and depreciation. Assume lease payments occur at the end of each period.)
