Upfront lease payment
One-off payment at the start that lowers the visible monthly payment but remains part of total cost.
Simple definition
One-off payment at the start that lowers the visible monthly payment but remains part of total cost.
Why it matters
This term changes how inputs, cash flows or results should be interpreted. RATIOXA keeps it explicit so two options are compared on the same basis.
Worked example
A €3,600 upfront payment over 36 months adds €100 per month.
