17 The advantage of using this method is that you only use the flat rate for related travel. It also
benefits those members who use a vehicle almost exclusively for work purposes.
Example
The member's car is used entirely for the job. The only private running, from the member's
home to the place of work, amounts to 1,000 km per year. Work-related travel is estimated
at 12,000 km for the year. The car comes within the 1,301 to 1,600 cc rating band. The
calculation of the individual rate is:
Annual running = 13,000 divided by fixed costs for cc class ($4,507)
= 34.66 cents per km
Plus running costs =
17.02 cents per km
Individual special rate = 51.68 cents per km
The member can be reimbursed at a rate of up to 52 cents for each work-related kilometre.
18 Where all members of a body use their vehicles almost solely for work purposes, or travel
considerable distances, you can calculate average individual special rates to suit groups of
members rather than calculating a special rate for each person. The special rates can be
different for each statutory body.
