FAQs
A: Equipment financing is a type of business loan. Like traditional business loans, IMS Fund Equipment Financing also has fixed monthly payments that include interest and principal. However, equipment financing involves paying the vendor/seller directly for the full cost of the equipment up front.
A: Business lines of credit work similarly to credit cards. Once approved for a certain amount, you can draw on and repay funds as many times as you like, as long as you don't exceed your credit limit.
A: Equipment financing and equipment leasing are both options for acquiring new equipment for your business, but they each have distinct advantages and disadvantages. There is a major difference between the two options regarding equipment ownership. When you use equipment financing, you are purchasing the equipment from a vendor and are; therefore you are the owner. Leasing, however, does not give you ownership of the equipment outright. Rather, you rent equipment for a set period of time, with the option to purchase it at the end.
A: Equipment Financing is a collateralized loan that allows you to purchase equipment for business use. There are many benefits to equipment financing, including:
- Preserve existing working capital
- Tax advantages through the Section 179 Tax Deduction*
- Improve your credit score with timely payments
An equipment lease is a rental agreement between an equipment vendor and a business, where you rent equipment from a vendor for a monthly payment. You do not own the equipment during the lease term (think about leasing a car for personal use – it’s just like that!). There are many benefits to equipment leasing, including:
- Preserve existing cash flow
- Permits regular upgrades to your equipment
- Tax advantages through the Section 179 Tax Deduction*
* Always consult your tax advisor about any tax advantages that may be available with equipment financing and leasing, as the tax code may change each year (or even mid-year) without notice.
A: IMS Fund equipment financing is not just for heavy machinery. In fact, you can finance almost any type of equipment, vehicle, or software you need to run your business. Here are just some of the business equipment needs that you can get covered:
- X-Ray Machines, Autoclaves, CAD/CAM Technology, Dental Treatment Units, and more
- Bull Dozers, wheel loaders, telehandlers, aerial platforms, trenchers, pavers, and more
- Solar Panels and HVAC Units
- Commercial mowers, front-end tractors, loaders, backhoes, excavators, and more
- Forklifts, workbenches, flow racks, case sealers, conveyor belts, and more
- Office furniture
- Trailers, delivery vans, company cars, food trucks,
- Commercial ovens, freezers, refrigerators, grills, food processors, and more.
A: Section 179* of the tax code allows small businesses to deduct the full amount of the purchase price (up to certain limits) of general business equipment. This deduction allows you to lower the amount that you pay for business equipment substantially. You can see additional benefits when your new equipment is leased or financed using Section 179 qualified financing. To be eligible for this deduction, you must have purchased/ leased/financed your equipment and have it placed into service during the year in which you plan to take the deduction.
This use-it-or-lose-it write-off is an excellent incentive for businesses to purchase, finance or lease the business equipment they need. However, ever-changing federal and state tax laws and tax and stimulus acts can always affect Section 179, so it is critical to speak with your accountant PRIOR to purchase to determine whether or not your equipment meets eligibility requirements for these tax benefits.
* Always consult your tax advisor as to any tax advantages that may be available with equipment financing and leasing, as the tax code may change each year (or even mid-year) without notice.
