The results returned by the leasing calculator are monthly rentals based on conservative equipment leasing rates for assets .Some sub-prime business customers may find that the deposit required is greater than the leasing calculator returned, i.e. 12 months rental instead of 6 is needed. Leasing companies will endeavor to achieve the best monthly rental we can for your asset finance. Lease payments are calculated by subtracting the residual from the net selling price, dividing that amount into payments and then adding the lease charge. The formulas mentioned below are basic and can vary.
Step 1 : Calculate the Depreciation
Depreciation = (Selling Price - Residual) / Number of Months
Step 2: Calculate the Lease Charge
To calculate the lease charge you will need to know the Money Factor (money-factor as the "interest rate" for the lease)
((Net Sales Price - Residual)/ Term) + ((Net Sales Price + Residual) x Money Factor) = Month Lease Payment.
Step 3: Convert the Money Factor to an Interest Rate
This formula produces a high interest-rate it doesn't necessarily mean that it is a bad lease.
