Is Factoring For
You?
The key to knowing if factoring
is for you is to not to look only at the bottom-line factoring fee, but also
to consider how your company may increase it's profits through
factoring.
Here is additional
information on factoring to help you with your decision.
How are
fees and advance rates determined? It is based on several factors: The
creditworthiness of your clients Your monthly billing volume Average
invoice size Average days to payment Fees can range from 2-5 % of the
invoice's face value. For example if the invoice's value is $1,000; a fee of
3% equals $30.
What is an
advance? The
amount of money you receive immediately when we buy your invoice. The balance
is returned to you when your customer pays the invoice. Advances range
from 60-95% of the invoice's face value. For example if the invoice's value
is $1,000 an advance rate of 80% equals $800. The balance of $200 less
the factoring fee is returned to you when your customer pays the
invoice.
Comparing Bank Lending Rates to Factoring? When
compared to bank lending rates, factoring initially appears to be very
expensive. Here are five typical questions/concerns that are raised by
potential factoring clients
- Wow! 3 points per month!
That's 36 percent year!
It is tempting to annualize the numbers, but that is an
"apples and oranges" comparison.Banks loan money at an annualized interest rate,
12 percent per year for example. We purchase your receivables at a discount. The
products are different and there are other inconsistencies to this inappropriate
comparison
The bank provides the money only one time, the day that you
receive the loan; we provide money continuously. As an example, consider a bank
loan for $100,000 at 12 percent. You receive the $100,000 just one time and then
pay $1,000 interest per month interest and you still owe the $100,000. Or the
bank could provide you with a line of credit that you use only when you need the
money but the bank is charging you for that privilege and if you need to
increase your line you need to go through the qualifying process all over
again.
When you factor $100,000 each month for a year you have the use of
$1.2 million (12 x $100,000) over the year. Unlike a bank loan where you have
just $100,000 one time. Assuming a 3 point discount, the fees over the year will
be 12 x $3,000 or $36,000, which is still 3 percent of $1.2 million. And at the
end of the year you have no debt!
- I'm only making 3% profit,
how can I pay you 3 points?
A company making only 3% net profit can do more business
volume as a result of factoring, and the larger volume will result in a higher
profit margin because fixed costs do not increase with volume. The added
business at a higher marginal profit leads to an increased overall profit
margin. As the volume increases, the cost of production decreases, so that
profits increase. Fixed costs i.e., rent, electric, insurance, etc., increase
very little or not at all with volume. An increase in business will not affect
rent. Electric bills may rise slightly. Workers compensation insurance may rise
slightly. These costs do not increase as do direct production
costs.
Let's graphically do the math assuming you can double your
sales Without Factoring

- But I only get 80% of my
money upfront!
Let's assume an advance rate of 80%. Let's also
assume that you begin factoring in January. You have factored $100,000, we pay
you $80,000 of that money upfront, with the remaining money making up the fee
(3%) of $3,000 and the reserve (17%) of $17,000. Now in February, you once
again factor $100,000 and receive $80,000. However. you also receive your
January reserve of $17,000(assuming your customer pay in 30 days). So for
February, you actually receive 97% of your money, instead of 80%. In the
second month and going forward you are basically receiving 97% of your cash
flow.
- But what if my customers
take longer than 30 days to pay?
You have several options, Assume your client takes 60
days to pay you bill your client in the normal fashion and simply allow 30 days
to go by prior to factoring that invoice. That way you pay the 30 day
fee. Another way is to factor your faster customers first for the cash you
need.
