Questions To Ask To Determine Your
Company's Needs
- Do you have capital tied up in equipment, which you would rather use for more productive and profitable purposes?
- Would it help your budgeting if you had a fixed, monthly cost to accommodate your equipment needs?
- Would you be interested in brand new equipment, for a specified period of time, without a heavy capital outlay, but with a set monthly fee?
- What type of replacement program do you have?
- Do you have a means of liquidating your used equipment?
- Would you be interested in having your present equipment replaced with new updated equipment?
- Would it increase your overall productivity to have more freedom of equipment interchangeability?
- Do you take pride in your equipment?
- Do you know what your equipment maintenance cost are each year for parts, services and temporary equipment during downtime periods?
- Would elimination of mechanics, stock, and service records alleviate any problems for you?
- How do you depreciate your equipment? Can you use the depreciation tax benefits being generated? Is it in line with the "optimum economic life" of your equipment, as per industry standards?
- Do you have a preference for on or off balance sheet financing?
- Did you ever have an AMT (Alternative Minimum Tax) obligation last year?
