[net.taxes] auto lease vs. buy

	Assuming that deductability of non-mortgage interest payments will
no longer be allowed for personal taxes in the new tax bill, how does
this affect the lease vs. purchase (and finance) decision concerning a
new car for personal use?

	Also, if the depreciation schedules and investment tax credit (if
any) are made less favorable for leasing agencies I assume that the
cost of leasing will go up.  Therefore, if one is concidering a lease
would it be wise to do so in 1986 as opposed to 1987?
