- Conserves Working Capital (100% Financing)
An ACI Financial finance product does not tie up working capital as do other methods of equipment acquisition, thus allowing more productive use of available capital. Therefore, your company gains both the needed equipment and the capital for future growth.
- Does Not Disturb Existing Bank Lines (New Credit Source)
There is a borrowing limitation in every business operation. ACI's financing products enable your company to maintain its borrowing capacity while allowing the advantage of the use of new equipment without burdening bank credit availability.
- Overcomes Budget Limitations
The purchase of new equipment may be beyond capital budget limitations. Without financing, the unhappy alternative usually is the continued utilization of machinery that has lost its maximum productive capabilities. Equipment financing enables monthly payments to be made from operating budgets rather than from capital budgets thus enabling the acquisition and use of more up-to-date equipment.
- Tax Advantages (Faster Write-Offs)
Most equipment purchases/financings meet Tax Code 179 deduction criteria which allows for the immediate tax write-off of the equipment amount. Additionally, monthly rental deductions are greater than depreciation expense, thus tax liability is reduced. Customers should consult their accountants to determine if the finance or lease plan offers tax advantages.
- Produces Profit
Many businesses realize a positive cash flow from financing equipment immediately because revenue produced or the cost savings realized by the financed equipment can improve productivity. Therefore, profits are derived from the use of the equipment.
- Hedges Against Obsolescence
ACI Financial enables replacement of equipment before obsolescence reduces efficiency and profits. This is accomplished without additional cash investment simply by transferring payments from non-productive to productive new equipment.
- Hedges Against Inflation
ACI Financial allows payments to be made over a long term. Payments are made with tomorrow's dollars which may have a lesser value than today's.
