So what is a Chattel Mortgage?
- A Chattel Mortgage facility is a product where ownership of the goods rests with the purchaser entity. i.e. your company.
- The financier takes a charge (mortgage) over the goods until the loan is repaid.
- Depreciation and interest are tax deductible. For tax purposes, the client claims the interest content of the repayments and can depreciate the asset according to ATO guidelines.
- An input tax credit for GST if you are registered is generally claimable straight away. You can use a structured repayment xxxx (LINK) to use this credit to pay down the loan if you want to.
- Goods purchased automatically become yours, however after the final payment the title of the goods is transferred to you
- The options of fully amortizing (paying down) the debt over the term OR including a balloon payment are both open to you.
- This balloon payment is usually between 10% - 40% of the cost price, but may be as low as one dollar, dependent upon the equipment.
