Have you ever considered a novated lease?

A novated lease is a great way to save tax!

 

How? A novated lease is commonly referred to as salary sacrifice. Reason being that the asset being purchased is financed from your pre-tax income. This can save you thousands of dollars in tax every year.

 

Why? Employers and employees both benefit from a novated lease. Employees can pay for their vehicle from their pre-tax income. A fully maintained novated lease also enables you to pay for the running costs, such as fuel and servicing from your pre-tax income, thus providing you with more tax savings. Employers benefit from a novated lease as it is a way of attracting new staff and retaining existing staff. It also eliminates the need to keep company cars on hand.

 

What? A vehicle, phone or laptop computer can be salary sacrificed. Some businesses even allow you to salary sacrifice your spouse’s vehicle.

 

When? A novated lease can be taken out at any time if your employer offers such incentive. If your employer does not offer a novated lease it is an easy process to enable them to do this if they so wish.
