You own a car rental company, and you have two options to replace your fleet. For each car, you can either enter into a five$-$year lease for $$5,530$ per year $($after$-$tax$)$ or you can purchase the car for $$30,000.$ You believe the cars will last for $8$ years. The lease payments cover maintenance costs, and lease payments are made at the beginning of each year. If you buy the cars, you will pay for a maintenance contract on each car and get tax benefits from depreciating the cars. Your net cash flow $($after$-$tax$)$ for maintenance and depreciation on a purchased car is $-$$$175$ per year $($paid at the beginning of each year$).$ Your required return on this investment is $12\%.$ Assume that you will continue to lease or purchase cars in the future at similar rates. Should you lease or purchase the cars?
