    Total Value = 5563.131709

    Explanation:

    using the annuity formula to find out the present value of lease rentals

    p=R * (1 - (1+i) ^-n) / i

    Total rental monthly = 5*60 = 60

    I=7.32% monthly

    R=385$ monthly

    Since we have:

    Value of the first is same i. e $385

    Value of remaining 59 payments as follows

    P=385 * (1 - (1+7.32%) ^-59) / 7.32%

    P=385 * (1-0.015482491) / 7.32%

    P=385 * 0.984517509 / 7.32%

    P=385*13.44969275

    P=5178.131709

    Value of 59 rental = 5178.131709

    Add: Value of 1st rental = 385

    Total Value = 5563.131709
