Leasing Residual

Leasing Offers Options at Year-end

by Joe Metzen




Just a few thoughts on some benefits of leasing as you plan
around year-end:

  • Tax Advantages – Faster write offs, larger expenses
  • No Down Payment
  • Preserve Working Capital
  • Flexible Payment Schedules – Meet cash flows
  • No Mortgage – Allows customer to improve property without affecting current agreements
  • Specialized Equipment – Avoid risk of obsolescence
  • Joint Leases – Makes payments and depreciation easier to share

Sale/Leaseback – FCL purchases equipment from you and leases it back:

  • Can create working capital if too much cash is tied up in equipment
  • Can use lease to spread the depreciation out if not as much is needed in 2009

Bonus Buster pricing on leases ends December 31, 2009

  • 0.65% discount to the customer

So far in 2009, twenty-seven existing or new customers of Frontier Farm Credit have taken advantage of these benefits. Check with your Financial Services Officer for more information.
