Equipment Leasing Services
Meerbaum & Company offers Equipment Leasing Services to enable your business to grow, conserve operating capital, and generate tax benefits.
An equipment lease is an agreement by which a lessee makes payments to the lessor (owner) of the equipment for the right to use the equipment exclusively for a fixed term. Presently, eight out of ten businesses in the United States lease equipment, and approximately one-third of all new equipment is leased. |
Leasing is Flexible
Leasing equipment provides flexibility and convenience. Leases can be structured to accommodate cyclical, operational, and seasonal cash flow changes in your business.
For example, as your business expands, you can add or upgrade equipment during the lease term through an add-on or master lease. This is especially useful for businesses that use computers, medical equipment, and other hi-tech equipment that have to utilize state of the art equipment.
The type of equipment that can be leased is virtually unlimited, and includes machinery, tools, instruments, and software.
Leases can also include the costs of installation, maintenance and many other services incidental to ownership of the equipment. |

Leasing is Cost Effective
Leasing enables you to lower your monthly payments because you pay only for the term that you use the equipment, rather than paying outright for the entire value of the equipment. The value remaining of the equipment is known as its residual value. The residual value is what allows the monthly lease payments to be less than monthly finance payments if purchasing outright. This benefit improves cash flow, an always-important consideration for your business. Leasing also improves cash flow is because it does not require a down payment or additional collateral, so it is equivalent to 100 percent financing.
Ease of equipment disposition is another benefit of leasing that cannot be underestimated. The costs of removal, environmental fees (in the case of some types of equipment such as computers), and remarketing, which under the terms of outright ownership can be significant, are avoided with leasing.
Leasing offers balance sheet and tax advantages. For example, an operating lease is not reported as a long-term debt or liability, and does not appear on your business’s financial statements. Your business gets the benefit of using the equipment, while maintaining favorable financial ratios required by traditional lenders in the event that you need them. For tax purposes, operating leases are treated as overhead expenses so lease payments are deducted from your corporate taxes, thus avoiding depreciation write-downs over time. Please consult your tax advisor for specific tax treatment of your transaction.

Our financing makes business equipment affordable, converting a large up-front purchase into low monthly payments. When the lease expires, you can return the equipment and upgrade to a more current piece of equipment. |
