Canadian Equipment Lease Tax Benefits
Two Leasing-specific Deductions That Deliver Valuable Tax Savings for Your Business
Leasing your business equipment in Canada safeguards your capital, cuts red tape, allows for quick and easy upgrades — and offers significant savings at tax time.
Leases and loans are treated very differently by the CRA (Canada Revenue Agency). Two of the most significant differences are found in monthly payment deductions and how you claim Input Tax Credits. Some businesses will benefit from larger, short term tax rebates and some will benefit more from smaller rebates over a longer period of time. Either way, leasing can help bring down your tax bill.
