The Benefits of Leasing
1) Conserve Cash and Working Capital
Leasing can provide 100% financing and often does not require
a down payment or compensating balance. Therefore, cash and
working capital are available to fund growth initiatives or
other operating requirements which typically generate returns
much higher than the cost associated with the lease.
2) Preserve Credit Lines
Leasing will allow you to keep your existing bank lines intact
and available for use for operational expenses and other business
needs.
3) Obsolescence Minimization
Leasing is a low cost, flexible method of providing your company
with the newest equipment before it exhausts its useful life.
At the end of the lease, your company is not burdened with
technology or equipment having minimal economic or productive
value, allowing you to generate a greater return on your investment.
4) Take Advantage of Tax Deductions
Lease payments on equipment are considered usage charges, not
payments on capital equipment. Therefore, lease payments may
be fully tax deductible as an operating expense. Consult your
tax advisor on how this can best work for you.
5) Flexible Financing
Costs not normally included in other methods of financing can
be covered in your company's lease payment, such as freight
and installation expenses. Additionally, at the end of the
lease term your company can choose to purchase the equipment,
return it or trade up to the newest equipment.
6) It Is Easy and Convenient
The credit approval process is typically completed within 24
hours of you submitting your lease application. You can consolidate
multiple costs including soft costs such as maintenance and
installation into one convenient payment. Leasing is the fastest
way to get your equipment in place and working for you!
