With the trade, and without knowing how much the dealership has to eat on it, it's impossible to know.. Also, would need to know the selling price of the vehicle and the money factor they are using.

Also, it's possible that you have some equity in your S4 lease. Try appraising it here and then comparing that value to the buy out price for your lease (all remaining payments + the original residual value from your lease contract).
