Renting
The
GoldBook

The HP4550N Color Laser

An HP4550N color laser printer is included with every copy of The GoldBook software as an integral part of the package.

The GoldBook's output has been tuned to produce exceptionally good looking graphs of high durability, year after year, on this very stable color printing device.


In order to reduce initial capital outlay expenses, The GoldBook may be rented in intervals of six months. When you rent The GoldBook, 85% of the rental payment is applied towards your equity ownership in The GoldBook. At the end of each six-month rental period, you have three options:

  • discontinue the rental of The GoldBook, at no penalty,

  • purchase The GoldBook, with whatever equity you've accrued deducted from the price of the product, or

  • continue renting The GoldBook until it is fully paid for. The rental rate is quite low, 2% of the applicable purchase price per month.

Renting The GoldBook for six months or a year is a way of having the product now at a very reasonable cost and purchasing it later when funds become available. However, if you should continue to rent The GoldBook under this rental plan, The GoldBook will be fully paid for in five years.

Maintenance charges are 16% of the purchase price per year. Maintenance charges for the first year are included in the purchase price and are optional thereafter. Maintenance charges are not included in the rental costs.

An HP4550N Color Laser is included in The GoldBook as an integral part of the product. In either a direct purchase or the rental of The GoldBook, a $3,000 pre-payment is required. The remaining $22,000 is portion of the fee that is available for financing.
