There is more than meets the eye when it comes to finance

Posted by on Aug 19, 2014 in Blog

The thinking that ‘Finance is designed for businesses who can’t afford to purchase equipment outright’ is very far from the truth!
It is for smart business operators who what to maximizing their cashflow and reduce company tax.
Let’s take a look how a recent customer used the ‘Rental Finance’ facility to ‘SAVE MONEY’ on buying new Refrigeration Units

Equipment Finance Amount:                                             $37,500 inc
60  x $758.09 Monthly Finance Instalments                         $45,485.40
Less gst (off-sets gst paid on your BAS)
Less 30% Tax rebate (off-sets Company Tax payable)         $16,540.19
NETT COST OF RENTAL                                                     $28,945.21

Or NETT COST OF RENTAL + OWNERSHIP                      $31,945.21

SAVING                                                                                 $5,054.79 *

How is this possible?

The utilisation of a Rental Agreement facility is very tax effective for business as the business doesn’t effectively own the goods till purchase at terms end. Therefore each instalment is viewed and simply accounted for as a expense item (just like your phone bill) which attracts up to 100% a tax deduction on each payment made in the term of the loan.  A tax deduction through depreciating if purchased outright takes many more years to claim back.

Other Business Building Benefits

The Balance Sheet isn’t effected with the liability of a large loan as the business doesn’t ‘owe’ the money used to buy the equipment.
A business retains Capital thus having the money working for them, not being lost acquiring equipment. This can be used on stock, Marketing, Investing…
