M35x lease question - based on MSRP or Cap cost by mule714

I just did a lease last night which I have not yet taken delivery. However, when I got back from the dealership and did some computations, I believe the dealership did the lease improperly. Perhaps, someone could shed some light on this?
 
The lease is on a M35x w/ Jouney/Tech/Sirius. MSRP is 50940 and VPP cost is 47000. It seems the dealer based the lease on the Cap Cost and not the MSRP. My experience with every other lease is that it should be based on MSRP.
 
These are the terms as I posted on the prices paid forum:
2 year lease w/ 15k miles per year was the following:
Cap cost = $47000
Tax = $1490
Total Cap = $48490
Residual = 69%
MF = .0001
Monthly Payment = $750
Bank Fee (550), Doc Fee (299) and License fees (56.50) were paid in cash.
 
Running the numbers through a lease calculator, I believe it should have been something like:
 
MSRP = 50940
Base Cap Cost = 47000
Tax = 1490
Total Cap = 48490
Residual = 35149
MF = .0001
Monthly Payment = 639
 
Running it through the estimator on Infinit.com I came up with the following: (this doesn't take into account the Tier 1 credit score w/ better MF and no security deposit... not sure how they're basing residual either)
MSRP = 50940
Adjusted Cap Cost = 48490
Monthly payment = 672
 
I've called the dealership and they're closed on Sunday. Left a message for them to call me ASAP before I take delivery.
 
Any suggestions on how this lease should be properly calculated? Thanks!

The paperwork printout from the dealer states 2.39%. For an interest rate of 2.39 the money factor is: 0.99583. Just ran the numbers they gave me through http://www.leaseguide.com/calc.htm and it comes out to ~$750 a month. I still think they should be basing the residual on MSRP, not the VPP price. Guess I'll find out in another 9 hours or so.

Sort of the old bait'n'switch. Doc from dealer clearly states:
 
Rate = 2.390
 
In my mind that means the Percentage Rate is 2.390 which would equate to the .001 MF. Turns out the dealer said it was a matter of semantics and that the money factor is 2.390. Never heard of such a thing. MFs are typically in the form of .00xx. After refusing to take delivery of the vehicle, the dealer met me more than half way. Wound up with a MF of .00139 which dropped my monthly payment to around 660.
 
Now comes the investment in DVD-A discs.

Just wondering if the February money factor and residual values are available yet? I'm considering the M45 sport and would be looking for 36 or 42 month, 10K or 12K/yr. Thanks in advance!

Latest deal: M35x lease by nrwayne

Here's the details:
3 years, 18,000 miles, zero down, 6% tax.
M35x w/NAV & journey: $648/mo + $1712 (tags, bank, 1st mo.)
M35x stripped: $609/mo + $1673 (tags, bank, 1st mo.)
Based on the 43,140 stripped price I was quoted, I suspect there's more to be squeezed. Any thoughts on these deals?

Did you ever find out if they based the residual on capital cost or MSRP? I believe the answer should be MSRP.
