Abstract
Government program of disposal of old vehicle fleet for the period of 2014-2015 clearly generates economic benefits for owners of old cars and for domestic auto industry companies implementing new motor-vehicles (an increase in sales). However, considerable importance is also the factor of real expansion of raw materials for steel industry, as amortization of scrap old cars (secondary raw materials) acts as the equivalent of primary raw materials, namely cast iron. The price of scrap is almost two times less than the price of cast iron, and consequently, the cost of steel as material-production (material costs - 80%) is significantly reduced. In the present article the economic factors are described that determine feasibility and cost-effectiveness of the use of additional recycled metal resources as a result of realization of Government program of disposal of old cars. The estimation of economic benefit for enterprises of metallurgical complex is given.
