The equipment need
The business was to replace an aging combine harvester before the opening of the harvest season.
The amount of the equipment, between $229,000–$458,000, far exceeded the self-financing capacity available at the beginning of the season.
Because farm income is concentrated over a few weeks a year, a conventional linear repayment would have weakened liquidity outside the harvest period.

The support described in the project
We have mounted a 60-month lease on the machine and its harvesting equipment.
The schedule was built with seasonal rental payments, higher after the campaign and lighter for the rest of the year.
The case was investigated and the agreement reached within a time limit consistent with the delivery date imposed by the concessionaire.
The reported operational outcome
The machine was delivered and put into service before the start of the campaign, without crop offset.
The business retained its available bank credit facilities for its working capital requirement.
The residual value enabled the machine to be scheduled for purchase at the end of the contract.
