Equipment Lease Calculator
Calculate equipment lease payments, total costs, and compare financing options. Understand how lease terms, interest rates, and residual values affect your payments.
Step 1: Equipment Details
Understanding Lease Types
Capital leases are similar to loans where you own the equipment at the end. Operating leases are rental agreements where the lessor retains ownership. Choose based on your financial goals and tax considerations.
Step 2: Financial Details
About Residual Values
The residual value is the estimated value of equipment at lease end. Higher residuals typically mean lower monthly payments. Industry standards vary: construction equipment (15-30%), vehicles (40-60%), technology (5-15%).

Lease Cost Analysis
Lease Payment Formula
Monthly Payment = [(Equipment Cost – Residual) + Interest] ÷ Lease Term
The lease payment calculation considers the depreciated value (equipment cost minus residual), plus interest charges, divided by the lease term in months. Down payments reduce the financed amount.
