• Rentals are considered an expense item
• Additional line of finance that may not affect banking arrangements
• Reduces the stresses of vehicle ownership
• The leasing company reclaims input VAT thus reducing the capital cost
• Need to accurately estimate the time and mileage for use of the vehicle
• No option to purchase the vehicle

Finance Lease:

Benefits and Considerations:
