Expert Solution

Lease is generally a Annuity due. Payment is made at Beginning of period. Present Value Of lease shall be Calculated using Present Value Of Annuity due Factor values.

Lease amount per month (P)= 400

Cost of Capital per Month (i)= 12%/12= 1%

Number of month (n)=30

  

PV of Annuity due $1 Formula = 1+(1*(1-(1/(1+i)^(n-1)))/i)

=1+(1*(1-(1/(1+1%)^(30-1)))/1%)

=26.0657853

Present Value Of lease liability today = Annuity or lease per month*PV factor

=400*26.0657853

=10426.31412
