Plant and Equipment

When it comes to Plant and Equipment there seems to be two very distinct opinions in terms of how to go about the purchasing of Plant and Equipment.

Theory 1

Buy the item out of working capital and own it outright.

Theory 2

Lease the item and leave the working capital in the business for other strategic uses.

Then there are the aspects of the purchase that involve;

  • Asset Depreciation.
  • Tax benefits in leasing.
  • Claim back GST (Chattel Mortgage).
  • Fixed interest rate for the life of the loan.
  • Adjustable Balloon, etc.
