Vehicle Finance and Fixed Asset Management

eAuto Fleet is passenger transport ERP software with vehicle finance and fixed asset management. Know not only where a vehicle is working, but how it is funded, what is still owed and what it is worth on the books.

eAuto Fleet vehicle finance agreements list by lender and vehicle

How does eAuto Fleet manage vehicle finance and fixed assets?

A finance agreement records the lender, the vehicle, the term and the instalment schedule. Each instalment is split into principal, which reduces the amount owed, and finance charge, which is an expense. The vehicle is registered as a fixed asset with its cost and useful life, and depreciation is previewed and posted by the finance team. Running costs such as fuel and maintenance stay separate.

The asset finance problem

Coaches are the largest assets on a transport balance sheet, yet their loans, instalments and depreciation are often tracked in a bank letter and an accountant’s spreadsheet. Principal and interest are mixed, depreciation is posted once a year, and nobody can say what a vehicle is really worth or still owes.

Who uses it

Post finance charges and depreciation correctly and on time.

Owners

Know what each coach costs to own and what is still owed.

Asset controllers

Keep the fixed asset register and net book values up to date.

Auditors

Finance agreements per vehicle

Each finance agreement is tied to the vehicle it funds, with the lender, term, instalment schedule and outstanding balance.

eAuto Fleet instalment schedule split into principal and finance charge

Principal and finance charge kept apart

Each instalment is split into principal, which reduces the liability on the balance sheet, and finance charge, which is recorded as an expense. Loan principal is a cash movement, not a running cost of the vehicle.
