1. You work for a nuclear research laboratory that is contemplating leasing a diagnostic scanner (leasing is a very common practice with expensive, high-tech equipment). The scanner costs $3.5 million and it would be depreciated straight-line to zero over 4 years. Because of radiation contamination, it will actually be completely valueless in 4 years. You can lease it for $875,000 per year for 4 years. Assume the tax rate is 33 percent. You can borrow at 10 percent before taxes. Should you lease or buy it? What is thenet advantage to leasingfrom your company's standpoint?
