To Buy or to Lease—That is the Question

The merits of onsite sign advertising are well accepted but opinions vary on how best to acquire it. This Process can be simplified by asking the question:"should i lease or buy a sign?"Unlike companies that limit their business to cash sales, National Neon offers both lease and purchase options to its customers. As a service to our customers, we have put together an economic analysis model that presents in layman's terms, an apples-to-apples, after-tax comparison of rental/lease-to-purchase costs. Our sales representatives can provide this input as part of our proposal. You will be surprised at how cost effective leasing can be when returns from investing the capital in your business, taxes, and time value of money is considered. Based on our customers past experiences, we offer a summary of the factors usually taken into account.
