Answering Common Questions About Copier Leasing

Leasing a copier is a smart move that can help your business improve productivity and save money. Copier leasing provides access to the latest equipment so your business can benefit from new developments in copying technology as they occur. Keep reading for the answers to a few of the most common questions you may have about leasing a copier in Tucson.

How Will Copier Leasing Save Me Money?

Leasing a copier can help you save money in many ways. First, rather than paying the entire purchase price of the equipment all at once, you’ll pay a low monthly cost. This is particularly beneficial for small businesses, which may not have the capital to purchase a copier but can easily afford monthly payments. If your currently use printers to produce or duplicate documents, a copier can also help you save money by offering a lower cost per sheet than a printer.

Are There Tax Benefits Associated with Leasing a Copier?

When you purchase a copier, you can deduct its depreciated cost on your taxes, which is typically equal to 40% of the purchase price the first year and 25% in later years. However, payments for leasing business equipment are considered completely pre-tax expenses, allowing you to deduct the entire payment every time you make it. Over time, this can result in a much greater tax deduction than deducting the cost of purchased copy equipment.

Can I Upgrade My Copier?

Equipment leasing agreements include optional upgrades to newer copiers when they are available. This means you can swap out your older copier for a newer, more efficient and multifunctional machine as they become available, rather than purchasing an entirely new copier if you want to benefit from any advances in copying technology that have been made since your current copier was produced.
