Is it legal to install trial version of Windows on computers that company want to sell?

Hi)

We need to sell old computers that we do not need any more. We need to decide if it is legal to install trial version of Windows on it.

1 Can trial version of Windows be installed on computers that company want to sell? Does company need to be somehow authorized for this?

2 Which version of Windows can we install as a trial?

Any links to official License Agreement or other resources will be greatly appreciated.

Andy Morton, thank you for comment.

I am reading this forum many times, but I can't find where it is specifically stated that Windows 8 trial is only for personal use. There is some FAQ from Microsoft posted but it's not stated there that Windows 8 Trial is only for personal use. What I need is official statement from Microsoft.
