The main difference between Asset
Purchase and Leasing is that with:
A) Asset
Purchase, the lender buys the equipment on your behalf and you enter
into agreement to repay the costs of the goods, plus interest. You may
choose to pay a deposit, so when the term is up the goods automatically
become yours. If the equipment is used to generate business income,
the interest component and depreciation on the asset can be tax deductible.
B) Leasing,
the lender buys the equipment on your behalf and "rents" it
back to you. Generally you finance 100% (of purchase price). At the
end of the term you may choose to buy the goods for a predetermined
residual value, if the equipment is used to generate business income,
the entire rental payment can be tax deductible.
