Leasing Vs Buying Decision - Management Duniya


Leasing Vs Buying Decision

For a company to decide whether to buy any equipment or take on lease agreement, it has to compare the NPV of both leasing & buying options.


The net cost of buying is the cost of asset less the PV of tax saving s on depreciation etc. Associated with the purchase of assets NPV of leasing is the post tax PV of lease rental outflows.


NPV (Buying) < NPV (Leasing) – Better to buy.


NPV (Leasing) < NPV (Buying) – Better to go for Lease.


NPV (B) = Cost of Asset – Tax Benefits.


NPV (L) = (1-Tax)
