Equipment financing can be used in virtually any industry, however there are some industries that utilize this more often than others. Here are the industries that most frequently use Kapitus equipment financing:
Q: What is equipment financing?
A: Simply put, Kapitus Equipment Financing is a loan that you use to purchase business-related equipment. It allows business owners to purchase the equipment they require to keep their business running and successful without the need to pull from existing working capital.
Q: How is equipment financing different from a business loan?
A: Equipment financing is, actually, a type of business loan. Similar to the traditional business loans that you are used to seeing, Kapitus Equipment Financing has monthly payments that include interest and principal over a fixed term. With equipment financing, however, the full equipment cost is paid directly to the vendor/seller upfront.
Q: How is equipment financing different from equipment leasing?
A: While both equipment financing and equipment leasing can be used to acquire new equipment for your business, they do have some very distinct differences. The main difference between these two options is the ownership of the equipment. When you use equipment financing, you are purchasing the equipment from a vendor and you are, therefore, the owner of the equipment. With equipment leasing, however, you do not own the equipment outright. Instead, you are renting equipment through a leasing company for an agreed upon amount of time, with the option to purchase at the end of your lease agreement.
Q: What are the benefits of equipment leasing v. equipment financing?
A: Equipment Financing is a collateralized loan that allows you to purchase equipment for business use. There are many benefits to equipment financing, including:
An equipment lease is, essentially, a rental agreement between an equipment vendor and a business, where you rent equipment from a vendor for a monthly payment. You do not own the equipment during the lease term (think along the lines of leasing a car for personal use – it’s just like that!). There are many benefits to equipment leasing, including:
* Always consult your tax advisor as to any tax advantages that may be available with equipment financing and leasing, as the tax code may change each year (or even mid-year) without notice.
Q: What types of equipment can I finance?
A: Kapitus equipment financing is not just for heavy machinery. In fact, you can finance almost any type of equipment, vehicle or software you need to run your business. Here are just some of the business equipment needs that you can get covered:
Q: Can I use the Section 179 tax deduction with equipment financing?
A: Section 179* of the tax code allows small businesses to deduct the full amount of the purchase price (up to certain limits) of general business equipment. This deduction allows you to substantially lower the amount that you pay for business equipment. You can see additional benefits when your new equipment is leased or financed using Section 179 qualified financing. To be eligible for this deduction, you must have purchased/ leased/financed your equipment and have it placed into service during the year in which you plan to take the deduction.
This use-it-or-lose-it write-off is a great incentive for businesses to purchase, finance or lease the business equipment they need. However, ever-changing federal and state tax laws and tax and stimulus acts can always affect Section 179, so it is critical to speak with your accountant PRIOR to a purchase to determine whether or not your equipment meets eligibility requirements for these tax benefits.
* Always consult your tax advisor as to any tax advantages that may be available with equipment financing and leasing, as the tax code may change each year (or even mid-year) without notice.
Suppose you need expensive equipment to run or grow your business. If you pay cash for it, your employees’ paychecks would bounce.
How do you find financing for business expansion, when the time is right?
Building and running a small business is hard. It takes conviction, leadership, sound management and, every so often, a much-needed injection of financing.
If you’re one of the nearly 200,000 dentists in the U.S., building and maintaining a thriving practice is certainly a key goal.
As a small business owner, you’ve probably heard of the Small Business Administration (SBA) – in passing, at the very least.
Any small business owner who spends time searching for small business loans–both through banks and online–has likely come across the SBA 7(a) loan program.
