At the beginning of 2012, Air Canada purchased a used airplane at a cost of $46,000,000. Air Canada expects the plane to remain useful for eight years (5,000,000 miles) and to have a residual value of $6,000,000. Air Canada expects the plane to be flown 1,300,000 miles the first year and 1,000,000 miles the second year.
