Abstract

Currently, United Airlines does not have any tow tugs at LAX and uses only tractors with pull bars. These are not suited for the lengthy tows. Due to high cost of these tow tugs a study is needed to identify economic viability of purchasing these tow tugs. In particular, the airline would like to identify metrics such NPV, payback, and IRR determined for a period of 5 years after buying these tow tugs.
