Leasing can work out more cost effective than paying with cash
By paying for your furniture and the refurbishment of your offices from your cash flow, only a limited percentage is available for tax purposes. This is because the revenue only allows you to offset 65% of the capital cost against your capital allowances. However, if you go down the lease rental route this will allow you to offset the full 100% of repayments against your corporation tax bill. This is the only form of borrowing where this is possible, and as such makes it the most tax efficient method of paying for your furniture and refurbishment works.
Inflation Proof
Lease rental payments are fixed from the outset and are therefore inflation proof, which enables you to precisely calculate, and budget for future costs.
