The superject would be solved after five years. Based on current values, the company would be able to sell it for one third of its original cost at the end of the five year period.
Lease alternative
If the superjet is leased, then the company would have to make an immediate deposit of 150 000 to cover any damage during use. The lease would run for five years, at the end of which time the deposit would be refunded.
The lease would require an annual rental payment of R600 000 at the end of each year. As part of the lease cost, the manufacture would provide all servicing and repairs.
At the of the five-year period, the plane would revert to the manufacturer, as owner.
