How is a Lease Calculated?

What is Leasing?

Leasing, often called lease financing, is a type of financing that allows businesses to acquire equipment or trailers without having to purchase them immediately. This type of contract provides a flexible and advantageous solution for businesses looking to optimize their cash flow while accessing the necessary equipment for their operations. Leasing is characterized by its unique structure, where a company (the lessee) rents an asset from a financing company (the lessor) for a specified period. At the end of the contract, the lessee has the option to purchase the asset for a predetermined residual value, extend the lease, or return the asset.

Note, in the case of Fincap, we do not allow the equipment to be returned.

The main characteristics of a lease include:

  1. Lease contract: The lease contract defines the terms and conditions of the lease, including the duration, lease amounts, obligations of the lessee and lessor, as well as the purchase option.

  2. Financed equipment: The assets that can be acquired through leasing include various industrial and commercial equipment, as well as vehicles. The industries concerned are numerous, ranging from manufacturing to services.

  3. Total financed amount: This amount includes the cost of the financed equipment, additional fees, and interest.

  4. Monthly payments: The lease payments are calculated based on the total financed amount, the contract duration, and the applicable interest rate. These regular payments are often tailored to meet the lessee's financial capabilities.

  5. Purchase option: At the end of the contract, the lessee can choose to purchase the equipment for its residual value, extend the lease, or return the asset. As mentioned, Fincap does not offer the option to return the equipment.

Components of a Lease Contract

Here are the main elements generally included in a lease contract:

  • Contract duration: The period during which the lessee will use the equipment. It can vary depending on the type of equipment and the company's needs.
  • Lease amounts: The monthly or quarterly payments that the lessee must pay to the lessor. These payments include part of the principal and interest.
  • Residual value: The amount the lessee will need to pay to purchase the equipment at the end of the contract if they choose to exercise the purchase option.
  • Maintenance and servicing conditions: The lessee's responsibilities for equipment maintenance.
  • Insurance: The lessee's obligations regarding the insurance of leased equipment.
