Is it possible to view a breakdown of expenses and incomes for things like the Maintainance Costs. I'm purchasing my 2nd aircraft and would like to be able to see how much each individual aircraft is making/costing me. Is there way to break this information down?

I don't think that there is a financial breakdown like you are looking for. Your best bet is to write down the cost your currently have then when you have your new aircraft take it again and subtract getting your amount. Although with an new aircraft you will not have much if any maintainance cost your first few days.
With age the cost will grow, it also depends per aircraft. Example a 747 has 4 engines so the cost of maintaining it will be higher then the 777 I believe. Also the size of the aircraft is figured into the formula. I don't know what else is taken into consideration.

The maintenance isn't calculated on aircraft-to-aicraft basis. The script uses the average aircraft age and aircraft value, among other variables. When you recieve your new aircraft, you might see that your maintenance fees fall, but sometimes, it suddenly jumps several times higher.
Don't expect maintenance to be consistent short term, but you will see general trends when comparing many different values.
Like Agent O. said, you can take note of your current maintenance fee and do the same when you get the new aircraft. This will give you an idea of how much the new aircraft costs the first while.

Does anyone know the formula for the maintainance fees for aircraft then?

The exact formula is not given out so no.
