The packing machine would be used for 10 years, at the end of which it would have no salvage value. It falls in an asset class with an allowable CCA rate of 10% per year. Use of the machine would reduce before-tax costs by $30,000 per year.

Assuming that you will obtrain the new packing machine in some way, should you lease or buy it?
