A company is planning to move and needs to decide if the new office should be owned or leased. The annual cash flows for owning versus leasing are estimated in the following chart. Assume that the operating cash flows will remain the same over the 10-year holding period. If purchased, the company will invest $325,000 in equity and finance the balance with a 5% interest-only (i.e. non amortizing) loan. The after-tax cash flow from sale of the property, after repayment of the debt, at the end of year 10 is projected to be $850,000.
