The cut-price fee reflects the fact the company will profit from selling the ship metal for scrap, officials said. What an odd sentence.
Does Apple new their newest iPhone at cut-price cost? According to the sentence above, one would expect a cut-price cost -- if the company will profit. Which is to say: Huh????

The cut price refers to the fact that the Navy usually has to pay for the ship to be scrapped.
Towing and ship-breaking is a costly process and the Navy has previously paid ISL large sums of money to recycle its ships,
Imagine if you had to pay $50 to have your old washer hauled away, but this week you can have your dryer carried out of your basement for free.

Lots of odd sentences...
“Both have spent their time since being maintained in naval yards.”
