Competitive pressures in the Equipment Leasing Industry continue to build into 2006. Although industry surveys project a healthy 7% to 8% growth in overall leasing volumes from 2004 to 2006, readily available capital continues to drive down returns as well as margins, especially for the best credit customers.
Like Kind Exchange for Equipment Leasing
Competitive pressures in the Equipment Leasing Industry continue to build into 2006. Although industry surveys project a healthy 7% to 8% growth in overall leasing volumes from 2004 to 2006, readily available capital continues to drive down returns as well as margins, especially for the best credit customers. In reaction to these competitive pressures, savvy lessors are increasingly taking advantage of a tax strategy involving the implementation of a Like Kind Exchange ('LKE') Program. LKE Programs enable equipment lessors to systematically avoid current recognition of taxable gain on the disposition of tax leased equipment and defer the requisite payment of state and federal income tax.
