Seasonal owners do better applying with a year of statements ready.

Illustrative arithmetic

A food distributor in Orangeville with about $135,000 in monthly deposits takes $74,000 to cover payroll during a slow-paying contract at a 1.26 factor rate, for a total payback of $93,240 over about 10 months. That works out to roughly $2,153 a week, or about 7% of monthly deposits; the cost is fixed at $19,240 however quickly it is repaid on schedule.
