From leaseguide,

"An acquisition fee is charged by lease companies, not dealers. Dealers typically do not make a profit on this fee, although some lease companies may "kick back" part of the fee to dealers as a reward for sending them business."


This is exactly my point: a fee charged by lease companies. I called BMW Financial Services (the leasing company) and spoke to the finance / lease agent and was told that the lease acquisition cost is charged and kept by the dealership.
