How the calculation works

Every total mile carries fuel and variable costs. Fixed costs are spread across total miles. The loaded-mile rate then recovers all monthly costs using only loaded miles. The target percentage is treated as margin on revenue, not a simple markup on cost.

Planning estimate only. Actual costs vary by equipment, operation, location, financing, insurance, taxes and unexpected repairs.
