#41 of 102 Liberty Lease Evaluation, Help Please by fletcher3 Feb 23, 2007 (7:41 pm)
Hi, I am new to the forum and I mistakenly started my own thread under jakpenn's thread about lease to buy ratio. If anyone could please give me some info on the lease I talked about above I would greatly appriciate it.   (if a moderator could move my questions into this thread it would be great too!!)   Thanks, Dave Replies to this message: fletcher3 (Feb 25, 2007 2:01 am) Car_man (Mar 12, 2007 2:56 am) fletcher3 (Mar 12, 2007 1:10 pm) 4jeeps (Mar 15, 2007 7:01 am) and 1 more...

Replying to: fletcher3 (Feb 23, 2007 7:41 pm) Alright, I could have m ade a mistake but given the formula I found on the web I think I calculated the money factor on the deal above to be .001359 (if I take that and multiply it by 2400 I get equivelant 3.2% interest rate) Right now they are giving out a 3.9 60 month interest rate on the Liberty so. . . it I think I did alright???   Anyways, if anyone can check my math and my numbers please let me know how we did on this lease.   It appears that my residual is low but I still don't know how to factor it. Do you go off the agreed purchase price, the MSRP or do you take the Gross Cap Cost minus the incentives you didn't pay for?   Thanks Again, Dave Replies to this message: Car_man (Mar 12, 2007 2:56 am) fletcher3 (Mar 12, 2007 1:10 pm) 4jeeps (Mar 15, 2007 7:01 am) Car_man (Apr 16, 2007 2:36 am)
#43 of 102 Formulas I used in attempting to figure out my lease by fletcher3 Feb 25, 2007 (2:11 am)
here are the formulas I used:   Monthly Finance Fee = Lease Charge ÷ Term   Finance Fee = ( Net Cap Cost + Residual ) × Money Factor   Depreciation Fee = ( Net Cap Cost – Residual ) ÷ Term   $ fac = Lease Charge ÷ ( (Net Cap Cost + Residual) x Term )   Interest Rate = Money Factor x 2400   Total Monthly Payment = Depreciation Fee + Finance Fee Replies to this message: fletcher3 (Feb 25, 2007 2:27 am) fletcher3 (Mar 07, 2007 3:13 am)

Replying to: fletcher3 (Feb 25, 2007 2:11 am) Ok last post till I get a response (just kidding) After doing some reading it appears I should use the MSRP in computing the residual so:   I came up with 42% on a 39 month 15k a year lease ( I think) seems low but .. .   I guess that is the least of all evils becuase from what I understand if you have equity at the end you can re-coup it with a trade-in or buyout/sell at the end of your lease.   Give me your thougts: Dave Replies to this message: fletcher3 (Mar 07, 2007 3:13 am)

Replying to: fletcher3 (Feb 22, 2007 2:57 pm) Hi Dave. The selling price that she was able to negotiate looks good to me. The truck's lease-end purchase option price is set by the bank that she leased it through, which is most likely Chrysler Financial. Individual dealers do not have the authority to alter vehicles' lease-end purchase prices. In fact, the higher your truck's end of term purchase option price is, the better it is for you as a lessee. That is because the higher a vehicle's purchase option price is, the less depreciation you have to pay for over the life of your lease and the lower your monthly payment will be. As long as the dealer used Chrysler Financial's current buy rate lease money factor to calculate her monthly payment, and they probably did because Jeep dealers seem to rarely mark up money factors, this looks like a good deal to me.   Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum

Replying to: fletcher3 (Feb 25, 2007 2:01 am) Hey Dave. Chrysler Financial's current 39 month buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 2007 Jeep Liberty Sport 4WD with 15,000 miles per year are .00136 and 42%, respectively. Vehicles' residual values are based upon a percentage of their full MSRPs, including the destination charge and the MSRPs of any options that can be residualized.   Car_man Host Prices Paid Forum Replies to this message: fletcher3 (Mar 12, 2007 1:10 pm) 4jeeps (Mar 15, 2007 7:01 am) Car_man (Apr 16, 2007 2:36 am)

Replying to: Car_man (Mar 12, 2007 2:56 am) So, in your opinion based on the numbers I provided I got a good deal correct?
