Example 2
Eagle Airlines has expansion plan. Currently 50% of flights are scheduled
and 50% are chartered.
A new seneca airplane costs 85000-90000USD. However, this price may go up
to 95000 USD if the purchase agreement is not made within two months.
It has 5 passenger seats. Operating cost is 245/hour. Annual fixed cost is 20000
USD (including insurances and finance charges).
The company needs to borrow 40% of the money 2% above the prime interest
rate of 9.5% (consider this includes the interest as well as the capital
component).
It is estimated that the company is able to charge 300-350 USD per hour
for charter or 100 USD per person for scheduled flights. Scheduled flights
on average is half full. Company hopes that the airplane fly 1000
hours/year with 800 being more realistic.
Other options the company has:
Invest in Bank with 8%
Rent airplane with 2500-4000USD
