An open End Commercial Lease with a Terminal Rental Adjustment Clause. TRAC Leases are limited to motor vehicle and trailers leased to businesses that use a minimum of 50% of the time for business purposes. TRAC leases have none of the penalties associated with other leases and up to 100% of the monthly payment can be tax deductible. At the beginning of the leases a residual is determined and will be used to determine the monthly payment. Upon lease termination you can purchase the equipment for the preset residual, return the equipment, or trade it in for a new purchase. Whether you trade it in or return it, you will receive any proceeds for the sale or pay the difference to satisfy the preset residual.
