How it was calculated

  1. Present value of the residual = $20,000.00 / (1 + 0.005)^36 = $16,712.90
  2. Payment = (value - PV of residual) / annuity factor × (1 + i) = $1,007.62

How the lease calculator works

A lease payment repays the drop in value (asset value minus residual) plus interest on the money tied up. In present-value terms: value = payment × annuity factor + residual / (1 + i)^n, where i is the monthly rate. Lease payments are usually due at the start of each month.

The rate tab solves the same equation for i, which shows the true interest rate of a lease quote that only tells you the payment.
