The monthly payment the dealer quoted you
Sticker price (you can find this)
Manufacturer rebates (published online)
Cash you're putting down (often $0 for leases)
What you'd pay to buy it at lease end (in your lease contract)
Optional: If they said "You qualified for X% APR". Solves ambiguity.
BEST OPTION: Total finance/rent charge from the agreement. The most accurate way to solve.

How the math works

Calculation paths:
โ€ข Direct โ€“ If you enter the Total Lease Charge or the dealer-quoted APR, the result is exact.
โ€ข Iterative estimate โ€“ If neither is supplied, the app finds the lowest realistic APR that balances the payment; this is an educated estimate, not a guaranteed rate.
