Acme has branched out to rentals of office furniture to start-up companies. Consider a $4,600 desk. Desks last for six years and can be depreciated on a five-year MACRS schedule. Assume administrative costs drop to $360 per year. The cost of capital is 9% and the tax rate is 35%. Lease payments are made in advance, that is, at the start of each year. The inflation rate is zero. Suppose a blue-chip company requests a six-year financial lease for a $4,600 desk. The company has just issued five-year notes at an interest rate of 6% per year.

What is the break-even rate in this case? (Its not $775.06)
