Explanation:

Present value of the lease payment:

[tex]C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\[/tex]

C 20,000

time 8 (eight quarters)

rate 0.03 (12% annual --> divided among four quarters = 3%)

[tex]20000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.03)^{-8} }{0.03} = PV\\[/tex]

PV $144,605.6591

We build the table starting from the present value. Then, we subtract hte installment and in the second period we start doing interest calculations

(not in the firt one as it is being paid in the present thus, no interest accrued)
