Contract Hire, PCP & Leasing For Business Users

BestPriceCar Insurance
PCP vs Contract Hire (Own or Rent)
BestPriceCar asked Oxford Landrover Business Manager, Charlie Stimson, which funding method is best for businesses.

"We suggest that PCP is the preferred choice for purchasing vehicles for business use. This often surprises our customers as Contract Hire is regarded as VAT efficient and PCP is believed to be only for private individuals."

"Often PCP repayments are cheaper, Contract Hire cannot be early terminated and if there is any equity value remaining in the car at the end of the period the buyer under PCP can purchase the car thus benefiting from the difference which may be as much as a few thousand pounds. We always suggest you consult an accountant to assess the most beneficial product for your business but more often than not PCP comes out best"

Obviously circumstances differ greatly between businesses and users but to help you decide the fundamental funding differences are shown in the table below.

PCP Contract Hire
Private individuals & businesses Usually VAT registered business users only
Title of vehicle passes to customer on payment of Option to Purchase fee Title never passes to hirer
VAT charged on car (unless 100% for business purpose) VAT deducted from car prior to calculation of monthly rental
No VAT charged on payments VAT charged on rental (50% reclaimable with private use)
Vehicle shows as asset on balance sheet Vehicle does not show on balance sheet
Loan liability shown in both Short Term and Long Term Liabilities on Balance Sheet Rental liability does not show on Balance Sheet but in notes to the accounts (contingent liability)
Depreciation charged to P&L account Rentals charged to P&L account
Capital (Writing Down) allowances claimable Rentals and unrecoverable VAT claimable as Revenue Allowances
Interest allowable as a revenue allowance Allowances must be used in the year in which the rentals are paid
Customers pay depreciation (unless protected by GMFV) Half the Excess applied to rentals (not the VAT)
Excess mileage applies Hirer has no liability for residual value (profit or loss)
Maintenance available as a separate contract Excess mileage applies to all contracts
Integral maintenance contract available
