[All L5M8 Questions]

Graham manages a biscuit-making factory and requires a new piece of equipment. After having his budget approved as a capital-expenditure item, he has looked at different purchasing options. Graham has decided to use a method in which the asset is leased over two years and at the end of the two years the company has the opportunity to own the asset outright via payment of a balloon payment. What type of purchase is this?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Hire purchase involves staged payments with an option to own the asset at the end (often via a final/balloon payment). Finance/operating leases don't necessarily transfer ownership.
