For example, assume that you need to buy a new car but
do not have the money that you need to pay for it. You must

• Analyses of different lease alternatives;
• Life-cycle cost analyses; and
• Trade-off analyses considering acquisition costs and
energy-utilization costs of operation.
• Acquisition is a separate

budget.
• The agency or the OMB
determines that the
acquisition is a major one.
• The total purchase price of
the asset or group of
assets will exceed
$500,000.

Step 5. Select the offer with the best net present value.
This section will demonstrate the use of that 5-step
process in two lease-purchase decision examples using

nominal discount rates or real discount rates.

t Offer A Offer B
0 ($10,000) ($29,000)
1 ($10,000) -0-
2 ($10,000) -0-
3 -0- $2,000
Step 5. Select the offer with the best net present value.
In this example, we would select Offer B, the offer with
the smallest negative net present value.
Lease-Purchase Decision Example 2. Assume that we want to
determine which of the following proposals will result in
the lowest acquisition cost?

0 -0- ($56,000)
1 ($18,000) -0-
2 ($18,000) -0-
3 ($18,000) $3,000
Step 5. Select the offer with the best net present value.
In this example, we would select Offer A, the offer with
the smallest negative net present value.
