The Customer Benefits of Leasing:

Leasing is a smart investment solution which creates flexibility and benefits companies in so many ways. Here are some key reasons why so many organisations like yours use leasing as an  alternative to cash or a bank facility.


  • Keep cash flow within the business rather than handing over a lump sum for a depreciating asset.
  • Get the equipment based upon your needs, not just when budgets allow.
  • Enjoy fantastic tax advantages, payments are tax deductible unlike using cash.
  • Keep up with the latest technology with the ability to upgrade at any time throughout the lease period.
  • Structure lease payments to suit customers’ needs and allowances.
  • Protect existing credit lines by using leasing as an alternative funding facility.
  • Spread the cost of your purchases in line with the return on the investment.
  • Spread the cost of the VAT which is paid in instalments rather than as a lump sum up-front.


Leasing or Renting a printer is a popular solution for many clients. It leaves valuable capital in your business required for trading and operations and leasing facilitates affordable monthly or quarterly payments which are tax efficient and offset against operating expenses.


Most lease and rental agreements are over a 5-year period. However, we can advise you on alternative options from 2 – 4 years to suit your own financial model. As your business requirements change during your lease, we can help you look at upgrade options and adding equipment or in some cases scale back hardware to focus more on software.


We are as flexible and agile as your business needs demand.

Tax Relief:

What is tax relief?

Enjoy 100% tax relief

When leasing equipment a company is able to gain tax relief on 100% of their lease rentals against corporation tax.


How does this work and what is corporation tax?

Corporation tax is the tax applied to the company’s profit at the end of their financial year, which is set at 19%.

For every lease rental paid the company is able to claim 19% in tax relief against the corporation tax, so the business is able to keep the cash rather than paying it to the HMRC.


Example:
Company A: makes £100,000 profit in their financial year and has to pay corporation tax of 19%:

£100,000 profit minus 19% corporation tax = £81,000 profit after tax. The tax the company will have to pay is £19,000.

Company B: also makes £100,000 profit in their financial year and has to pay corporation tax of 19%.


The company also has £10,000 worth of lease rentals for the year:

£100,000 profit minus £10,000 lease rentals = £90,000. £90,000 minus 19% corporation tax = £17,100.



So Company A pays £19,000 in tax and Company B pays £17,100. Company B has saved £1,900 in tax.
