| The option to upgrade equipment is available free of additional V.A.T. on original equipment and if the same supplier is used for new equipment, a preferential discounted figure is given – effectively this is a higher “trade-in” amount. | Extraordinarily little to no value is attached to trade-in or 2nd hand equipment after a period of +/- 3 years and therefore capital would effectively be lost when new equipment is purchased. No return on capital would be recognised. |
