I am about to buy a Mercedes Benz C300 RWD sedan with 36/10 in zip 33021 If I buy Mercedes Benz pre-paid service for the life of the lease, do I have any benefit in the residual value of the car or it stays in 58%?
I am about to buy a Mercedes Benz C300 RWD sedan with 36/10 in zip 33021 If I buy Mercedes Benz pre-paid service for the life of the lease, do I have any benefit in the residual value of the car or it stays in 58%?
Stays at 58%.
But, we've heard some reports that if you get the dealer to add the cost of the maintenance to the MSRP, it becomes subject to the residual.
what is the right payment for 36/10 in zip 33021? MercedesBenz C300 RWD sedan
MSRP: $56,140 Shipping Charge Mercedes Benz: $995
Should I calculate the RESIDUAL VALUE of the car as 58% of the $56,140 or the 58% of $56,140+$995?
Is the GROSS CAPITALIZED COST calculated as MSRP+Shipping Charge+Dealer Fees+Registration+Acquisition Fees+Pre-Paid Maintenance Fee+Taxes on the Fees (not the taxes of the Residual Value nor the negotiated value of the car) less Dealer Discounts?? It is a question.
Is the ADJUSTED CAPITALIZED COST calculated as GROSS CAPITALIZED COST less Rebates and incentives, less down payments?
Is the DEPRECIATION AMOUNT calculated as the ADJUSTED CAPITALIZED COST less the RESIDUAL VALUE?
Is the BASE PAYMENT AMOUNT calculated as the DEPRECIATION AMOUNT divided by the lease term?
Is the INTEREST PER PAYMENT calculated as the (ADJ CAPITALIZED COST plus RESIDUAL VALUE) and then multiplied by the Money Factor?
Thank you for your help. It has been very difficult with the dealers, they always want to play games.

Stays at 58%.
But, we've heard some reports that if you get the dealer to add the cost of the maintenance to the MSRP, it becomes subject to the residual.
If that would be the case, it would be like paying only 42% of the cost of the maintenance?

Should I calculate the RESIDUAL VALUE of the car as 58% of the $56,140 or the 58% of $56,140+$995? The bottom line of the window sticker, including destination and all options.
Is the GROSS CAPITALIZED COST calculated as MSRP+Shipping Charge+Dealer Fees+Registration+Acquisition Fees+Pre-Paid Maintenance Fee+Taxes on the Fees (not the taxes of the Residual Value nor the negotiated value of the car) less Dealer Discounts?? It is a question. The Gross CAP is the selling price, plus other costs rolled into the lease. If you are paying any of those costs directly, upfront, then they shouldn't be in the Gross CAP Is the ADJUSTED CAPITALIZED COST calculated as GROSS CAPITALIZED COST less Rebates and incentives, less down payments? Yes, it's analogous to "amount financed" on a loan.
Is the DEPRECIATION AMOUNT calculated as the ADJUSTED CAPITALIZED COST less the RESIDUAL VALUE? Correct. That is the total depreciation. Divide by the lease term to get monthly depreciation.
Is the BASE PAYMENT AMOUNT calculated as the DEPRECIATION AMOUNT divided by the lease term? No, base payment is monthly depreciation + monthly finance (rent) charge
Is the INTEREST PER PAYMENT calculated as the (ADJ CAPITALIZED COST plus RESIDUAL VALUE) and then multiplied by the Money Factor? Correct. That is the monthly finance charge

Subtract .00080 from MF for one-pay; if you have the funds, we do recommend it.
Negotiate the best selling price, knowing about the incentive.
Watch out for markups to the MF.

You would want to negotiate a bigger discount to offset that, however.
