What are the advantages and disadvantages of a rental car company incurring fleet debt via the ABS market rather than borrowing from a bank? Can you give specific examples please ( e.g. A car loan from Wells Fargo rather than issuing ABS though Wells Fargo for the same car) Cheers and thank you for this informative article

Hello Andrew, I own a small rental business in Australia. I would love to ask your advice about how my accountant shows profit and loss.

That's a great post about the car rental companies! I think the net of actual depreciation and gains on sale of cars is kind of misleading. They should also include the gross values for the segments.

What do think abut the balance sheets? Do you take this into consideration?
