Perform online research to find a car you would like to have. Find out how much it would cost to lease the vehicle, and how much it would cost to own it. In about 500 words, explain how you will decide whether to lease or purchase the car.

The average lease payment for a new vehicle is just over $450 per month for a three-year lease, according to Experian's Q1 2019 State of the Automotive Finance Market report. That's about $100 less than the average monthly auto loan payment for a new car, which was $554.The average monthly payment on a new car was $523 in the first quarter of 2018, according to credit reporting agency Experian. But that's far from the true cost to own a car. For vehicles driven 15,000 miles a year, average car ownership costs were $8,469 a year, or about $706 a month, in 2017, according to AAA. The choice between buying and leasing has often been a tough call. On one hand, buying involves higher monthly costs, but you own something in the end. On the other, a lease has lower monthly payments, but you get into a cycle where you never stop paying for a vehicle.
