Tax Lease/True Lease Benefits
Tax Lease/True Lease is another way for your business to prosper with a new or used piece of equipment. It basically works like this: The lessor holds possession of the asset's ownership. The lessee (the business owner) may be allowed to claim the entire amount of the monthly investment as a tax deduction. Many rental contracts qualify as a True Lease including a 10% Option and a Fair Market Value Lease.
Example of True Lease: Assume that you have a Tax/True Lease with a $1,000 monthly payment, the below tax savings that may be available:
Monthly Investment |
$1,000 |
Finance Term |
36 months |
Tax Bracket |
35% |
Monthly Tax Savings |
$1,000 x .35 = $350
|
Total Tax Savings Over Contract Term |
$12,600 |
|
To make sure that your asset qualifies, refer to the IRS's Publication 946. If you need advice on leases, such as a Tax Lease of a True Lease, feel free to contact us at 800-604-4817.
