BSU, Boeing is currently cash flow positive on the 787 to the tune of roughly $25 million/aircraft. That's about $4 billion/year. Now, even at that rate it'll take several years to break even on the program, but the 787 will likely make money.
Airbus isn't even cash flow positive on the A380... They need to up the production rate to twice it's current rate to be cash flow positive, so as it stands now, the more A380's they build, the more money it looses.
