10. A system for leasing multiple vehicles, comprising:
-
a storage medium containing compiled information as to vehicles available for leasing and time periods in which the vehicles are available for leasing; an input device for inputting information; a central processing unit connected with said storage medium and said input device; one of said input device and said central processing unit, configured prior to entering into a lease; presetting at least one group of N vehicles from the compiled information, where N is a non-infinite integer, setting a total lease term for each group of N vehicles, dividing said total lease term into P sub-lease terms, where P is a non-infinite integer greater than one, with one vehicle of each group being leased during each sub-lease term, and selecting a plurality of M individuals for leasing the vehicles in each group, where M is a non-infinite integer less than or equal to N, such that during the entire lease term, all M individuals have an obligation to use all vehicles of the group of N vehicles in all sub-lease terms; said central processing unit, configured prior to entering into a lease, calculating lease costs for leasing each vehicle in each group for each sub-lease term; and an output device for supplying a copy of a lease agreement with each individual of said selected M individuals for leasing a plurality of said N vehicles in said P sub-lease terms for a preset one of said groups of N vehicles, whereupon the central processing unit revises the compiled information to remove the selected vehicles in the selected time periods from the compiled information. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
