Financing Options

Cash Purchase
Cash purchases with funds provided from working capital is normally the least costly method of acquiring equipment...provided the cash is available. Service fees and interest costs are eliminated for the buyer. Although outright purchase may provide the lowest total cost, you need to consider that this is working capital and could be used for other business development, rather than purchasing mobile equipment.

Financing
A finance purchase is normally referred to as a Conditional Sales Contract. This type of purchase plan has limited cash outlay in the form of a down payment. The buyer takes the depreciation benefits, and owns the machine at the end of the financed term.

Lease
Leasing provides the use of equipment over a specified period of time, without any transfer of ownership. You "pay for what you use" and you can be granted with an option to purchase the equipment at the end of the lease term. This method usually offers the lowest monthly costs, and the tax benefits of off-balance sheet accounting.

Rental Purchase
A short-term rental agreement (1 - 12 months), with an option to purchase at the end of the term, offers opportunity to build equity through monthly payments. This method also offers the customer time to assess the suitability of the machine on his application and time to deliberate ownership benefits.

Rent-to-Rent
This short term contract for the use of equipment is typically paid month-to-month, or as the equipment is required. This allows for rental machines for specific jobs, with rates available daily, weekly, or monthly. Finning has large up-to-date rental fleets available to meet your exact needs.

Matching cash flow to monthly payment affordability is the key element in satisfying your product acquisition requirements. The bottom line is good money management.
