LOCATIONSAsset Disposal
Everything you purchase and maintain requires investment. When these assets age and decrease in efficiency or usefulness, their costs increase while their performance declines. Eventually, they’ll reach the end of their life and begin collecting dust. However, while they’ve become impractical for your business, they might become a prized possession of another.
Rather than letting those resources sit untouched, properly disposing of them is a convenient method of freeing up space and capital—and creating opportunities for buyers looking for reliable, affordable equipment.
What is Asset Disposal?
Asset disposal is the process of removing long-term assets from your company’s financial records. Over time, your vehicles and equipment may not be able to turn a profit like they once did, with costs for storage, maintenance, and repairs building up.
Rather than keeping something with limited use to your operation, you can calculate the item’s disposal value, which is its remaining worth, and choose the most suitable disposal option, whether a private sale, auction, or donation. Often, asset disposal will reduce your overhead, cover the equipment’s original cost, and provide capital to invest in a newer model. Meanwhile, buyers benefit from gaining access to used equipment at competitive prices—keeping your assets in use instead of idle.
If you aren’t sure whether asset disposal is the right option for you, consider the following reasons why many companies dispose of their old equipment:
-
An asset has fully depreciated.
-
It is more expensive to repair than it is to replace.
-
The equipment offers substandard performance.
-
It increases operational downtime.
-
It is no longer suitable for their daily work.
