Preston Corporation is considering whether to borrow funds and purchase an asset or to lease the asset under an operating lease arrangement. If the company purchases the asset, the cost will be $110,000. It can borrow funds for four years at 12 percent interest.

e. Compute the aftertax cost of the borrow-purchase alternative.
