Budgeting Predictable, fixed monthly expenses. No monthly payments after purchase.
Maintenance Often included in the lease agreement. Costs are typically your responsibility.
Ownership No ownership; the copier is returned at end of term. Full ownership and control over a long-term asset.
Tax Benefit Lease payments can be written off as an operating expense. Potential for depreciation and Section 179 tax deductions.
