0 xeys to Financing Equipment

(Continued from page I 4) to consider. Most businesses don't have the resources or knowledge to efficiently manage and sell their old equipment. The convenience of having equipment managed by a third party, such as an equipment Ieasing and financing company, allows businesses to focus on core operations. With lease financing, for instance, you may essentially outsource the equipment management function so the financing company can handle its disposal or resale when it is time to retire the asset.

10. n"a,r"ed Risk.

Equipment purchases involve risk to the owner-from equipment expertise to capital outlays, from asset management to obsolescencethat become the burden of the equipment owner. Financing removes many unnecessary risks allowing you to focus on your business.

Knowing the options available for a company interested in equiPment acquisition will enable you to obtain the most for your company without hamstringing your budget or your company's future. Remember, You make money by using equipment, not necessarily by owning it.
