A store has 5 years remaining on its lease in a mall. Rent is $2,000 per month, 60 payments remain, and the next payment is due in 1 month. The mall's owner plans to sell the property in a year and wants rent at the time to be high so the property will appear more valuable. Therefore, the store has been offered a "great deal" (owner's words) on a new 5-year lease. The new lease calls for no rent for 9 months, then payments of $2,600 per month for the next 51 months. The lease cannot be broken, and the store's WACC is 12 percent (or 1 percent per month). Should the new lease be accepted? (Hint: Be sure to use 1 percent per month).

    Present value of 60 payments $94,405 (Excel = PV (1%, 60, 2000))

    Future value of these payments at t=9

    Future value $1,03,249.99 (Excel=FV (1%,9,94,405)

    Periods 51
