Keating Co. is considering disposing of equipment with a cost of $55,000 and accumulated depreciation of $38,500. Keating Co. can sell the equipment through a broker for $29,000, less a 5% broker commission. Alternatively, Gunner Co. has offered to lease the equipment for five years for a total of $45,000. Keating will incur repair, insurance, and property tax expenses estimated at $12,000 over the five-year period. At lease-end, the equipment is expected to have no residual value. The net differential income from the lease alternative is

$9,250

Explanation:

Calculation for the net differential income from the lease alternative

Lease amount=$45,000

Estimated expenses=$12,000

Net sale of equipment=Sale of equipment through broker $25,000 less 5% commission

Using this formula

Net differential income = Lease amount - estimated expenses - Net sale of equipment

Let plug in the formula

Net differential income= $45,000-$12,000-($25,000-($25,000*5%)

Net differential income=$45,000-$12,000-($25,000-$1,250)

Net differential income=$45,000-$12,000-$23,750

Net differential income=$45,000-$35,750

Net differential income=$9,250

Therefore net differential income from the lease alternative is $9,250
