Compare the advantages anddisadvantages of equipmentleasing vs. financing thepurchase.?
I am a licensed General Contractor. My business is growing and I need equipment. I am trying to decide whether I should lease the equipment or finance it to puirchase the equipment. Could someone tell me the advantages and disadvantages of the options and what do you recommend?
Linda, Leasing used to be more attractive, because you could write off 100% of the payments on your income taxes, where if you purchased equipment, you could only write off equipment payments where you paid less than $20,000. Since the tax law has changed, for equipment under $100,000, you can write if off regardless of whether you make lease payments or borrow money and make debt payments. So... decide which to do by: 1) where you can get financing 2) interest charges and fees 3) end of contract terms (in a lease you can own the equipment at the end for a buyout - you must factor this into the decision to determine which option offers the best overall terms and costs.

The leasing revenue & COGS model is very different than a product or services business. To a leasing company, revenue is the periodic interest income generated each month over the term of the lease, let's say at a rate of 15%. The leasing company borrows money at say 8% to buy the equipment and match-fund the equipment lease, let's say through a term loan (recorded on the balance sheet & amortized to the P&L to match the revenue stream). This is not like revenue & COGS on a product company P&L. Further, the lessee may be required to make a down payment and say first & last month rents, reducing the funding requirement and accelerating the cash flow back to the leasing company & effectively increasing the profitability to the leasing company. Last payment must also be deferred on the balance sheet. From a tax perspective the leasing company also depreciates the equipment asset.
I would try Mirco soft web site see what they have for business.
