More information on each of the products listed above in section 1. Asset-based finance :
Full maintenance leasing
With a full maintenance lease you can cover your company’s vehicles for unforeseen maintenance such as normal wear and tear and all routine services.
Benefits:
With fixed monthly costs, you can stay within budget irrespective of the actual vehicle expenses incurred.
A full maintenance car lease:
Reduces your monthly rentals because you pay for usage only
Reduces administration
Eliminates the risk of losing resale value because you are not responsible for selling the vehicle
Enables better cash flow and no there’s no capital outlay
Reduces your tax liability because rentals can be claimed as an operating expense
Offers flexible agreements where your contract can be restructured according to changing circumstances
Improves your asset and gearing ratios
Allows acceptance by auditors as being off balance sheet
Covers all eventualities except driver abuse, glass and accident damage
Allows you to claim VAT on maintenance goods for passenger vehicles
Allows you to claim VAT on the total rental for commercial vehicles
Rental finance
This is the ideal option if you receive a travel allowance and want to use the vehicle for a specific period of time and distance, without the ownership of a depreciating asset. It's much like hiring a car for an extended period of time.
Benefits:
The Operating Rental generally provides the lowest cash outflow and the lowest risk:
You are able to fix all motoring costs with the exception of fuel expenses, assuming that the prime interest rate remains unchanged
You only pay for the portion of depreciation that you agree to use
VAT is not included in the purchase price and you only pay VAT on the portion you use
There is no risk of lower market resale value since you don’t own the vehicle
An operating rental agreement includes a residual value (guaranteed resale value) held by Bidvest Bank, thereby reducing the monthly rental payable
You may elect to attach or ‘bolt on’ a maintenance contract to further eliminate any risk such as unforeseen repair bills
Ownership is possible but not obligatory, by settling the remaining capital including the residual value
Instalment sale finance
You can pay off your company vehicles and other movable assets over an agreed period of time. The two options Bidvest offers both allow for companies and car allowance recipients ownership at the end of the contract without an upfront deposit. The main difference between the two is the manner in which a deduction against income tax can be claimed.
Financial Lease enables you to claim the sum of the actual repayments made during the tax year.
Instalment Sale allows you to claim a wear-and-tear allowance plus finance charges. The wear-and-tear allowance is generally 20% per annum (5 years straight-line depreciation).
