Why should businesses purchase capital with finance rather than paying cash?
Businesses traditionally go through peaks and troughs which results in cash reserves increasing and reducing. Therefore a business may wish to retain these cash reserves for future business expansion such as a deposit on new business premises or increased superannuation contributions.

A business has $100,000.00 in their company bank account and plan to pay cash for an office fit out, new computer and telephone system.
An alternative would be to invest $100,000 in a term deposit at 6.25%p.a. The initial $100,000.00 investment would have increased to $135,408.12 before tax in 5 years.
If that business were to finance their office fit out on a Commercial Hire Purchase facility, it will have only cost them $122,233.37 before depreciation and allowable tax deductions. Assuming the company chose to finance their office upgrade they would still have their $100,000.00 plus accrued interest they would also now own the financed asset. A potential saving of over $13,000. |

Why would anybody want to pay cash for something that is cheaper to finance and then ask themselves how long it took to save their cash asset?
