They would help the sales force generate $6,000 in additional sales per year for 5 years. No salvage is expected after the 5 years. Alternatively, the company can lease the cars for $2,500 per year and payments are due at the beginning of the year. The marginal tax rate is 40%. What are the incremental cash flows? LO3

3. 22-2 Example: Lease Cash Flows continued What are the incremental cash flows? After-tax lease payment = 2,500(1 -.4) = 1,500 (outflow years 1 - 5) Cost of the car = 100,000 (inflow year 0) Lost depreciation tax shield Table 22.2: Tax shield on CCA for car LO3
