A rate of appreciation is applied to the value of the property — by analogy with the interest loan rate. In order to use the property the client makes monthly payments. At the end of the contract period he pays the redemption amount after which the property passes to the client in ownership.
Leasing combines the features of a long-term lease and a loan. But what are the advantages of leasing? Firstly, the customer can refund VAT. Secondly, he does not pay property tax during the entire term of the contract, while the equipment is owned by the leasing company. Thirdly, there is no collateral.
