Is it more expensive?
Operating Lease payments are lower than chattel mortgage instalment payments or finance lease agreements for the same equipment, because at the end of the contract period (usually 2 to 5 years) the value of the equipment is recovered by AGCO Finance. This value is built-in at the start to provide lower rentals
