Equipment Leasing Criteria 3

Once it’s clear that a business requires additional capital by way of Equipment Leasing, the funding source will require a list of the existing assets of the business to see if they are un-encumbered. If there are no un-encumbered assets, that pretty much kills the notion of Equipment Leasing.

Relevant assets (plus a Valuation Report) may include:

  • Land
  • Building
  • Machinery
  • Equipment
  • Inventory
  • Accounts receivables

Royalties, trademarks and goodwill are not included. This is because the funding source only considers those assets for which there is a ready market if the Borrower defaults.

Having evaluated the assets, a loan amount will be arrived at. Invariably, this is a percentage of the derived value of the assets
