• Review financial ratios
  • Return on investment
  • Net Present Value
  • Cash Payback period
• Make a recommendation to lease or finance the capital item. Please support your decision with financial data.

• Provide support for your statements with citations from a minimum of seven scholarly articles. These citations should be listed in the Notes section of the slide in which they appear. Two of these sources may be from the class readings, textbook, or lectures, but four must be external.
