Equipment Leasing and Financing Since 1984

A Message From
Our Founder
The Holidays are upon us!
Isn’t it absolutely amazing… we’re well into the 4th quarter of 2005 – and
I’m sure it was only yesterday that we had trouble remembering to write 2005
instead of 2004 on all our correspondence.
I guess it’s time to reflect on the year… Pacifica Capital celebrated our
21st year offering our customers flexible alternatives to depleting their
cash for equipment acquisitions. Year-to-date Pacifica Capital is enjoying
an excellent year helping our vendors offer financing solutions in order to
increase their sales. The economy continues to re-emerge and our customers,
vendors and lenders tell us their respective businesses are in a steady
growth-mode once again.
2005 is a great year to acquire and finance capital equipment... Our
customers continue to be able to take advantage of the Section 179 Tax
Deduction. Businesses can deduct up to approximately $105,000 (adjusted for
inflation) of qualifying property in 2005. In the years 2006 and 2007, the
$105,000 limit will be increased by inflation adjustments. For lessees who
choose to structure their lease as a capital lease (with a fixed purchase
option amount, whether it is one dollar or another amount), they may treat
the lease like a loan and depreciate the equipment. Unfortunately, the
previously available first-year bonus depreciation (whereby businesses were
able to depreciate up to 50% of the cost of long-term assets in a single
year) ended on Dec. 31, 2004.
So… as we move towards Thanksgiving – I want to express my sincere thanks to
everyone who has contributed to our longevity and success over these many
years of growth and change. It has truly been, and continues to be, a
remarkable journey for the extended Pacifica family.
On behalf of everyone at Pacifica Capital, I wish you continued success,
good health and happiness.
