PerCina Report released its Equipment Value Forecaster, a solution for the leasing and lending industries, as well as other parties interested in the future value of equipment.

The Equipment Value Forecaster provides instant value curves for all major asset types on a confidential basis. It also provides as many as four different values for the user, including future fair market (FMV) value installed, future FMV in-exchange, future orderly liquidation value and future forced liquidation value. These values can be used for pricing booked residual values on new lease transactions, as well as analyzing the reasonability of balloon payments and collateral coverage over the term of a financing. The Equipment Value Forecaster can also adjust future values due to excess or reduced usage.

• Gaining an independent third-party opinion of value
• Completely confidential queries
