Question about
Case
I want to receive updates regarding this question via email.

Leasing cost reduction

Thanks for the case! It was fun and offered great insight! 

I have a question on the sentence:

  • (Long Term) Leasing costs can be cut through the purchase of planes through capital received by government – new monthly costs (which include amortization) is 75% of current rate

If the new monthly cost is 75% percent, shouldn't the percent cost reduction then be 25%? 

Am I missing something? 

Thanks!

Hi Andrea,

That's a great catch! The wording I used does not match the exhibit. 

Thanks for the catch…I'll update ASAP :)
