Restoration service Route Fuel Budget
Fuel spend = distance / 100 × litres per 100 km × price per litre
Gather a completed job sheet, supplier quotes and a crew schedule. Include equipment rental, monitoring, and crew time. The starting figures are examples. Replace them with your own records.
Formula and worked example
Fuel spend = distance / 100 × litres per 100 km × price per litre
| Input | Example |
|---|---|
| Distance in period | 2,500 km |
| Fuel consumption | 9 L / 100 km |
| Fuel price per litre | 1.7 |
| Calculated result | 382.5 |
Choose reliable inputs
Plan materials, travel and crew time before committing to a price. For this restoration service calculation, use a completed job sheet, supplier quotes and a crew schedule and a consistent definition of one restoration job.
- Equipment rental: include the portion belonging to this restoration job or reporting period, and record where the value came from.
- Monitoring: include the portion belonging to this restoration job or reporting period, and record where the value came from.
- Crew time: include the portion belonging to this restoration job or reporting period, and record where the value came from.
Use the same currency for every money input. Do not mix weekly costs with monthly revenue, or count the same expense in both an itemised cost and allocated overhead.
How do distance and consumption change fuel cost?
This covers fuel only. Idling, loading and actual driving conditions can change consumption.
What if this input changes?
If distance in period rises by 10%, this example changes by 38.25 . This shows the effect of one change; it does not predict what will happen.
Open the calculator, save your baseline, then change the input supported by the least reliable estimate in your records. Compare both scenarios before committing to a price or capacity promise.
