What kinds of lease are available?
Fair Market Value Leasing
As an extension of Cisco, Cisco Capital offers aggressive residuals on terms up to 60 months, which can significantly lower the cost to the customer. At the end of the lease term, a customer may return the equipment, purchase the equipment at its then FMV, or extend the lease *. If the lease is considered an operating lease for accounting purposes, lease payments made from an operating expense budget would not show on the balance sheet, and may be tax deductible.
* Variations by country apply
Full Pay Out Financing
Cisco Capital also offers flexible financing terms (from 12 to 60 months) where the customer owns the equipment at the end. For tax accounting purposes, the lessee is considered the owner of the equipment from the beginning of the term. Organisations receive the tax benefits of carrying only the interest portion of the periodic payments as an expense.
