Leasing Blood Analysers
Leasing rather than owning equipment allows companies to produce a better operating performance. Companies who own have to scratch around to find the cash to pay off debts or to invest, but companies who rent benefit from the better financial flexibility offered by the cash released from not owning there equipment such as Blood Analysers. There is slower growth for companies that own their equipment. The research also reveals that the leasing is positively related to a company's growth.
Rather than trying to find the money in one lump sum, you can pay for the Blood Analysers over the whole period that you use it. Unlike an overdraft there is no possibility of being forced to repay early and, generally, the agreements are set up with a fixed rate of interest so you won't get any nasty shocks if interest rate rise. So, cashflow planning is much more reliable. Unlike an overdraft there is no possibility of being forced to repay early.

To be able to operate successfully, your business will need to acquire assets or capital equipment, such as plant or machinery. These assets may include office furniture, Blood Analysers, computer equipment, company vehicles, engineering machines or service equipment. You could buy all of this equipment outright, or you might decide to rent or lease it instead. There are advantages and disadvantages in both options.
The disadvantages of buying outright include :−
- you have to pay the full cost of the Blood Analysers up front out of cash which can affect your cashflow
- if you use an overdraft or loan to fund the purchase it will add to the cost − overdrafts can be withdrawn at short notice and in some cases early repayment of loans can be demanded
- a small company is unlikely to get the same deals on price as a large company and may not have the same product knowledge and experience − and so could make an unwise choice
- you may end up buying Blood Analysers that you will not need in the future
- you can't easily spread the cost to coincide with money coming into the business
- you are entirely responsible for the maintenance of the Blood Analysers
- you won't be able to take advantage of the tax benefits of deducting the cost of rental from your taxable income
- the value of the asset may depreciate over time and be worth less than you paid for it
- you take on all the risk if the Blood Analysers breaks down or needs replacing.
