Finance Explained. Funding Solutions Overview

  • Hire Purchase

    Ownership is easier than you thought. You pay a deposit plus the whole VAT amount at the beginning. What is left to pay, plus interest and fees, is simply split into easy to manage payments – typically over 1-5 years. After you make the last payment, you own the machine. And because you own the machine, the hire purchase option allows you to claim capital allowances. Enjoy the privileges of ownership with a repayment structure that meets your needs now. It does not get more straightforward than this: fixed scheduled payments, no surprises, and you will own your machine by end of the contract period.

  • Finance Lease

    It’s an attractive leasing option with fixed repayments. Since VAT is payable on each lease payment rather than in full at the outset, this is an easy start. The finance lease starts with a primary lease period, typically 2-5 years – which covers the full cost of the equipment. At the end of it, you may request the equipment to be sold to a third party – the proceeds from the sale are yours to keep. Or you can opt for a secondary lease period, continue to use the equipment in exchange for prearranged annual fee. Start using your new machine quickly, with a low deposit and easily budgeted fixed payments. Finance lease requires low initial capital outlay and features fixed payments, fixed interest and no usage restrictions.

  • Operating Lease

    Think of this as your minimum commitment, low payments option. In an operating lease, you only pay for the use of the machine. That lowers your monthly payments. At the beginning, you pay an upfront rental fee, and your rental payments include VAT. At the end of the agreement you simply give the machine back to John Deere, subject to return conditions. Though you cannot claim capital allowances,  you can offset the rental payments against taxable profits  as a business expense.

  • Contract Hire

    The straightforward all-inclusive rental option with minimal commitment, lower monthly payments and a worry-free maintenance package. It combines all the advantages of an operating lease with comprehensive maintenance packages in one fixed price agreement. After an upfront rental fee,  you enjoy lower fixed monthly payments, and return the machine at the end of the term of the agreement. You can offset the rental fees against taxable profits, since they are  a business expense.
