Can you sell surplus equipment or parts surplus to your immediate, and even your short term, needs?
This is a good time to divest yourself of any such equipment and generate a once-off improvement in your Income from their sale.
Example:
- More leased vehicles than you really need.
- More expensive vehicles than you need.
- Down-size, or re-size, your vehicle fleet.
- Machines sitting around that you no longer use.
- Sell surplus equipment to another party.
Remember:
Much of this machinery will have been depreciated from your accounts.
Although it has a much lower value to you than when you purchased it, it may have more value in the minds of a buyer. It will bring you in cash but it might give your tax accountant conniptions recalculating things. That’s not really an issue for you to worry about when compared to survival.
