    A) Accounting profits dont take implicit costs into account, only "real" or quantifiable costs. Thus the present value of a 120,000 lease at 5% for three years with explicit costs of $40,000 maintenance is:

    PV = [ FV / (1+r) ^n ] - (Explicit Cost)

    PV = 120000 / (1.05^3) - (40000*3) B) same thing but add implicit costs ...

    PV = 120000 / (1.05^3) - (40000*3) - (55000*3)
