2015 Acura ILX lease question

I am looking around at lease deals on the 2015 Acura ilx base model.
Here are the lease details based on an add on the web:
MSRP: 27,970
Net Cap = 22,976.62
Monthly lease payment: 209
Residual value: 15,942.90
Term: 36 months
Miles: 10k/yr
Due at signing: 2,399 (Does not include tax, title and license)
Based on the above details, I calculated the residual percentage to be 57% and MF = .00035

I need to calculate my monthly payment for a 2015 Acura ilx base model for 15k 36mo with total sales tax, title and registration fees of 1,875 rolled into the lease.

The local dealer here has the sticker price on a 2015 Acura ilx base model at 23,982.
Using a residual percentage of 55% (my best guess), residual value of 15,383.50, and the money factor I calculated above of .00035, I got a monthly payment of 305.36. That sounds too low. Are my residual value assumption and money factor calculation correct?

Any help you could provide would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

    You are correct. The numbers are .00035 MF and 57% residual.
    The numbers for 36mo, 15K/yr are .00035 MF and 54% residual.

    I'm not sure what you mean by the sticker price of the one at your local dealer being $23,982? Is that the selling price?

    If so, with an MSRP of $27,970 and a selling price of $23,982 and CAP cost of $25,857, the monthly payment would be $313.mo. Unaccounted for is the $595 acquisition fee.

    Thanks for the quick response! Yup, the $23,982 is the selling price. In my opinion, this looks like a descent deal considering I will come in with little (acquisition fee) to no money down. Can you tell me what the residual percentage is for a 24 month 15k lease in Texas? I've heard that ALG has a reference manual that lists residual percentages...is it common for libraries to carry this subscription?

    Thanks!


    24/15 residual is 61%.

    ALG does publish residuals, but they are only used by independent banks. They aren't valid for Acura Finance leases.
