Budget Sense:
Accurately predict cash flow and keep liquid funds available for core business activities.
Preserve existing lines of credit such as bank loans or overdraft facilities.
Payments are immune to economic or political climate change.
The payments are fully deductible operating expenses so the true cost of leasing is only a fraction of the lease payment.
Leasing facilitates the acquisition of essential equipment without waiting for annual budgets, grants, cash flow upturns etc.
Flexible terms and contract options. |
Equipment Choices:
Undertaking a lease and repaying from the expected savings or profits makes it easier to cost-justify the acquisition of quality product rather than a cheaper alternative.
Intangible products such as software, cabling, training and service costs can be included in a lease package.
In changing market-places, leased equipment can be easily and simply upgraded, negating the problems associated with 'trade-ins' and rapidly changing residual values. |
