MACCI Cuts the Ribbon at JCPenney Company, Inc. JCPenney’s first Wisconsin stores opened in 1916. Not long after, JCPenney opened its doors in downtown Marshfield on April 27, 1920. The store changed styles, managers and locations over the years, and will now change once more. JCPenney shoppers will discover new and exciting ways to get their Penney’s worth of style, quality and value in the newly renovated store, with a modern interior mimicking the look and feel of a brand new JCPenney store. “At JCPenney, we’re committed to providing Marshfield customers with a compelling shopping experience that blends the best of our trusted brands the the newest innovative retail concepts,” Andrea Kaiser, JCPenney general manager said. “We can’t wait to share our fresh new look just in time for the back-to-school shopping season.”

The remodeled 33,500-square-foot store features an innovative store environment distinctively designed with the customer in mind, including an updated floor plan, modern fixtures, an all-new fine jewelry department and much more. Ease of customer shopping is paramount, with improvements such as updated signage and graphics for locating hot trends from popular private brands, easily accessible footwear for the whole family and a trained staff of window experts available to assist customers with a wide range of products. Customers can now also utilize the JCPenney mobile app to locate and apply coupons at the register and view special promotions.

The store’s updated salon interior features a modern color palette, engaging wall graphics and houses an exten-sive assortment of hair care products. The Salon by InStyle stylists are trained to deliver an advanced approach to cuts, color and client service. Join us as we celebrate the new JCPenney’s and their commitment to great customer service!

Participating in the ceremony were: Andrea Kaiser, JCPenney general manager; Scott Larson, MACCI Executive Director; Steve Barg, City Administrator; and Pat Wesenberg, MACCI Board President.

Should I buy or lease assets for my business?Question:Should I buy or lease assets for my business?

Answer:This decision depends on several factors, such as the cost of the asset, your cash and/or credit position, and the asset's value to you now and in the future.

In the short term, leasing an asset allows you to try out a product without making a lengthy commitment. If you find the item doesnot meet your needs, you are not stuck with it as you might be if you had bought it and had difficulty reselling it. For items thatquickly become technologically obsolete (e.g., computers and communications equipment), successive leasing allows you the flexibility of upgrading. In most cases, a lessor (particularly of office equipment) will also provide maintenance support on theitems you lease.

Buying an asset provides you with equity. But it may also require a substantial cash outlay for an outright purchase or a down payment. Certainly, obtaining credit for a large purchase (e.g., an office building) may be difficult, and credit for leases is easier to obtain.

In contrast, you will likely spend more dollars by leasing over the life of the asset than you would with a purchase, even if youconsider the interest payments on a loan. This is particularly true with real estate. The interest you pay on loans to acquire realproperty may be tax deductible as a business expense, as may maintenance costs and depreciation on the asset. Also, even though most lease payments are fully deductible as business expenses for tax purposes, your purchase of the asset may provide greater tax relief in the long term.

As a general rule of thumb, buy the asset if it will increase in value over time and you plan to keep it more than five years. If the asset will decrease in value, lease it.
