TRAC Lease vs Commericial Finacing? How do write offs differ?

You are missing the whole thing.
You are not just writing off the payment.
payment
insurance
maintenance
anything and everything you do with the vehicle.
the other benefit is when you take on financing you are depreciating the vehicle yearly for 5 years than it will turn into capitol gain.
the trac never goes on your credit file personal or business but does report to your Dunn
so
$1150 payment
$2531 gas
$200 tires
$150 maintenance guestimated
$4031 monthly written off
$48372 yearly
$241860 over 5 years
So which do you think is better now.

and this is all tried and true.

 

That was a stupid reply let your money work for you

 

yes

 

you actually put the payment under the rental and lease line and the other deductions go into there perspective places 100% written off. its an off balance sheet expense to the company

 

a trac lease is not a lease by any means. you are on the wrong forum you are talking about a true lease which this by no means is,.

 

Finance a truck and at the end of the agreement you own it. TRAC lease at the end of the term, if done correctly, you can (1) walk away, (2) renew and continue to lease (usually at a lower rate) or (3) purchase the vehicle at fair market value. Any lease that is $1 at the end for a buyout is not in the eyes of the IRS a lease, it is a purchase agreement.

Yes, for a lease the amount is fully deductible, simple to track. Financing requires depreciating the purchase price annually, and also you deduct the interest paid. So in the end as far as "write-offs" are concerned, the total amount you pay either way is deductible.

 

Why do you say that? What is your definition of a "true lease" then?

 

Who Sid it was $1 at the end?
