A Tax Arbitrage
• Suppose ClumZee movers is actually in the 25% tax bracket and Tiger
Leasing is in the 34% tax bracket. If Tiger reduces the lease payment to
$6,200, can both firms have a positive NPV?
• Cash Flows: Tiger Leasing
Year 0 Years 1-5
Cost of truck –$25,000
Depreciation Tax Shield 5,000×(.34) = $1,700
Lease Payments 6,200×(1 –.34) = $4,092
–$25,000 $5,792
NPV = 76.33

Year 0 Years 1-5
Cost of truck we didn’t buy $25,000

After-Tax Lease Payments 6,200×(1 –.25) = –$4,650
$25,000 –$5,900
NPV = -$543.91
