1. Operating Lease Lessee and Lessor. Cutthroat Aviation leased a Boeing 737 Max from Varden Leasing Services on January 1, 2019 in order to provide a short-term addition to its capacity. The lease term was 3-years, with annual payments of $4,250,000 due at the beginning of each year. Cutthroat does not know the interest rate implicit in the lease, but its own incremental borrowing rate is 5%. Varden Leasing had recently acquired the airplane from Boeing at a cost of $90 million, and is depreciating it over 30 years.
