Why
Consider Leasing?
Leasing allows
you to pay for your equipment incrementally while you receive revenues for
its use. This allows you to have additional cash which can be
re-invested into your company.
Operating leases
allow for payments to be used as an operating expense rather than being put
on the balance sheet as a depreciable asset. This allows you to pay
for equipment using pre-tax dollars and keeps balance sheet ratios high.
Leasing improves
cash flow by providing a payment which is lower than other means of
financing. Most leases are structured as less than 100% payouts, which
allows your payments to be reduced.
Leasing prevents
you from owning equipment that depreciates rapidly and becomes
obsolete. This also enables you to keep up with technology by
replacing equipment that no longer meets your needs.
By allowing is
to provide financing for your equipment, you free-up your additional
financing sources. This will ensure that you are using the most competitive
resources available.
