Reasons to Lease

Reasons to Lease vs. Cash:
  • Only pay cash for items that appreciate in value - use somebody else's money for items that depreciate
  • Cash kept in the business improves the balance sheet and the key financial ratios lenders evaluate
  • Cash is derived from after-tax profits - the lease payment is a pre-tax expense

Reasons to Lease vs. Bank Financing:

  • Generally leasing requires much less out of pocket money
  • Leasing keeps bank lines of credit available for business opportunities and other short term cash requirements
  • Leasing may offer off-balance sheet financing which can enhance a company's financial ratios and ability to get a loan
  • Leasing provides an additional line of credit for the company as well as an additional credit reference
