Making Money, Inc. is considering the purchase of a new truck so it can make more money. The truck costs $120,000. Making Money, Inc. had been renting the truck every week for $500 per week plus $1.20 per mile. On average, the truck is traveling 75 miles per week. If Making Money, Inc. purchases the truck, it will only have to pay for diesel fuel and maintenance, at about $.50 per mile. Insurance costs for the new truck are $5,000 per year. The truck will probably be worth $20,000 (in real terms) after six years, when the company would be looking to sell the truck. Assume a nominal discount rate of 10% and a forecasted inflation rate of 2.5%. The tax code is rapidly changing, so we are going to ignore taxes for now. WHAT IS THE NPV of BUYING vs RENTING? (round to nearest whole dollar)
