One alternative is to lease the truck on a 4 year guideline contract for a lease payment of $10,000 per year, with payments to be made at the end of each year. The lease would include maintenance. Alternatively, the company could purchase the truck outright for $40,000 (depreciated under Straight Line Method), financing the purchase by a bank loan for the net purchase price and amortizing the loan over a 4-year period at an interest rate of 10% per year.
