Finance Lease

Finance Lease

What is Finance Lease?

Finance lease is similar to hire purchase and is generally considered to be capital leases for accounting purposes.

The VAT is paid on the instalments rather than upfront.

The customer does not take automatic title to the goods at the end of the agreement.

Hire Purchase

Why Choose Finance Lease?

  • A finance lease is an agreement in which you get full use of the asset without actually owning the equipment. Ownership of the equipment is retained by the lender.
  • You can continue leasing the equipment at the end of the primary period; at which point a secondary rental specified on the finance lease documentation will commence.
  • Rental charges can generally be offset against profits.
  • VAT is paid with each payment rather than at the beginning of the agreement.
  • The Secondary Period Rental is collected by the finance company at the end of the Primary period. The amount is dependent on their terms and conditions.
  • The asset can still be sold during the primary term and you will get a rebate for the remaining rental charges. You may be eligible for up to 100% of the sale proceeds after settlement or the balance after payment of any settlement owing.
  • A Documentation fee is payable (amount varies depending on the finance company).
  • Contracts require the end user to maintain and use the asset in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendation.
  • The asset must be fully insured.
  • Your accountant will be able to provide more information. This information is provided for guidance only.
