CALCULATION OF EXCESS EMPTY MILES
© 2007 Railinc. All rights reserved.
Calculation of Excess Empty Miles
• Pull Accumulated Loaded Miles
• Pull Accumulated Empty Miles
• Multiply Loaded Miles by 1.06 (106%)
• Result is Allowable Empty Miles
• Subtract Allowable Empty Miles from Accumulated Empty Miles
• Result is Excess Empty Miles
© 2007 Railinc. All rights reserved.
Calculation of Excess Empty Miles
• For Example: – Accumulated Loaded Miles = 1,000– Accumulated Empty Miles = 2,000– 1,000 Accumulated Loaded miles– X1.06– =1,060 Allowable Empty Miles– 2,000 Accumulated Empty Miles– -1,060 Allowable Empty Miles– = 940 Excess Empty Miles
