Think you are completely miss reading the situation. They care deeply about money and will be looking at the overall picture in terms of turning a profit.
Part of the purchase agreement was that they had to invest in the playing side. Losing Rudiger and Christiansen for free will have stung them and whilst many take the mick out of them offering long contracts most of their critics have misunderstood what the reasons ( plural) why these extended deals were on offer. Of course in PSR terms it reduced expenses but in accounting terms the asset doesn’t quickly decrease to a point where there is no potential sell on value.
It’s easy to fall into the trap of saying that £1.2 billion has been spent on the team and yes the players have cost a packet but alongside players that already have featured in the PL there are a significant “ stock” of youngsters that cost a decent sum players like Kendry Perez already a regular in his international team then you have a stream of Brazilian players players that will be in our squad over the next year or two
Of course not all these youngsters will develop, they never do, but the owners have these highly thought of youngsters under long term contracts and their fees( or ant least the bulk ) is already paid and also other players currently in the squad will depart many for a profit
In terms of Broja of course Chelsea will take him back but on terms that suit Chelsea. The fact he ties up a loan spot is a significant bargaining chip in Chelsea’s favour and Everton really haven’t ( sadly from your perspective) got any option but to pay one way or another.

Your issue is mate, buyers are probably not going to pay those fees and the asset gets depreciated.

Re Broja I agree, there's no reason for Chelsea to accept us not paying, unless there's an explicit clause that allows it, which I doubt there is.

As we know players values get depreciated as a matter of course, well those that where a fee is paid the eye watering numbers are those that you buy for say £50 million and they leave for nothing after say 150 games on a free .

What’s really interest Is pre PSR/FFP we probably wouldn’t be talking about not getting fees to match a players book value nor would the majority even know what amortisation meant.

Ironically RA who spent millions and then some was to a degree ahead of the game when it came to selling players not from a cash flow perspective but how to drive to up PSR receipts.

Of course the likes of Fernandez and Caciedo probably won’t hold their value but the sums being paid for players is growing at a pace and if you told me that we would get circa the sum back ( book value wise ) for Cassadei I would have laughed but not just that with the loan fees from Reading & Leicester excluding his wages we probably are close to break even and should he develop then the 25% sell on clause would generate a return.

The real gamble is the vast sums for players ( mainly SAmerican ) who are the real gamble and not players that attracted fees of no more than £15 million
 
Hilarious how chelsea buy him for £20 mil, has barely played at all, but they double their money on him.
If that were us we'd have bought for 20 million and sold for about 8 mill
You really can't fault their business model.

It's at the stage where they have an international reputation for having a perennial glut of good young players, which in itself is self-sustaining as far as how much they can command in fees is concerned.

Even if none of them make their first team, it's a handy earner to bankroll their incoming transfers.

The fault would be that you need to have a crazy billionaire owner and be a big enough club to attract the sheer number of players to enable the model to work.

Also helps to have the FA in your pocket so PSR is not an issue.
