Thank you!
I agree with the math on that worksheet.
Where is the breakdown of the inception fees? Florida is known for very large dealer fees.
How much cash is the dealer asking for from you?

When making a decision on a $33,000 asset, I'd want to know every last dollar and charge.
Florida dealers, especially, have a nasty habit of charging gigantic dealer fees. Want to confirm there isn't any other junk buried in there.
Relative to MSRP, that is a decent payment, but without knowing all the numbers, we don't know if it could be better.

Using lease guide calculator with these numbers gives me $81/month of just interest. ($25104+$16512)/0.00194.

I was on the phone with the dealer today and they were doing something screwy I have never seen before. Their numbers were MSRP: $32,525 (EX Premium Pkg), Selling Price: $30,025, Lease Cash: $2,500, Tax: $500, Doc: $380, DMV: $64, Assignment Fee: $650, MF: .00208, Residual: 56%. Using both my home-grown spreadsheet and the Leasematic app, I get $401.64. They said $414.00. If I add precisely $414.00 to the total price, I also get a $414.00 payment. But that doesn't make any sense to me. I've leased a lot of cars from different brands and never had to do that. The F&I guy I talked to had some box on his screen and if he checked it, he got $401.64 just like I did. But he said he wasn't allowed to have it calculated that way and "it works out to the same thing in the end anyway..." I've googled this but it's a difficult question to phrase for a robot. Do any of you know what's going on here?
Thank you in advance!
Genuinely,
Sam

Sorry, but no idea what the F&I guy is doing, without seeing his screen.
Why are you using 56% for the residual?

I am about to tell them they need to make the pilgrimage to civilization (Atlanta or Charlotte) to find an honest dealer.
I'd guess there is a communication breakdown.

Can I please have the Money Factor and Residual (and lease incentives) for the Niro Plug-In Hybrid in Florida? I am okay with whichever terms and miles seem most favorable.
Thank you!

Also, a question: I've noted a relatively small difference between 24 and 36 month residuals (usually 4-6%). If this is the case, would it be advisable to lease for 24 months if we will possibly purchase the vehicle at the end of the lease period? It seems like paying the 3rd year lease rate for only 4-6% reduction of the MSRP wouldn't be in our favor financially.
By way of simplified hypothetical example (numbers from Kia payment calculator):
MSRP: $32440
$2,000 down
24 mo: 60% residual; $384/mo
36 mo: 54% residual; $344/mo
Car value after 24 months: $19,464 (based on MSRP)
Car value after 36 months: $18,900 (based on MSRP)
Difference: $1,946
Difference in lease payments for months 1-24 (24 vs 36 month lease): $960
Total lease payments for months 25-36 of lease: $4128
Net difference 24 mo vs 36 mo months: $3168
Am I looking at this in the correct way? It seems to me like the cost difference in leasing for 36 months ($4128-$960= $3168) wouldn't be prudent in terms of how little the car's value would decrease ahead of purchase in months 25-36 ($1946).
Thanks,
Jason
Car value after 36 months: 17,518 (based on MSRP).
All the subsequent math is still correct.

If your goal is to own the car, you should just buy it.
As to your specific details.. Yes, the residual only drops a little bit... but, also, you are only paying a little bit for that term. If you end up buying the car, it's a wash, as you'll either pay that amount of depreciation in the third year of the lease, or you'll end up paying it when you buy the car, after the second year.
If you are leasing, you don't want to pass up a lower payment for the first two years, then a continued lower payment in the third year. Why? Because you might decide that you don't want to own it.
That's assuming that your assumptions and payments are correct. You won't know until you negotiate a purchase price. And, if you calculated with any sort of downpayment or money upfront, that will favor a lower payment for 24 months, but that won't necessarily be cheaper, when total cost per month is considered.
