Vehicle Cost

Vehicle Cost is a Windows-based program for tracking and analysing running costs for multiple vehicles.

Vehicle Cost Overview

Vehicel cost was designed to do detail costing for each vehicle. A detailed distance cost-per-unit or cost-per-hour analysis is provided for each vehicle to compare vehicle performance over time.

Core Features

  • Supports entry of an unlimited number of vehicles in one data set.
  • Allows unlimited cost and income accounts to be set up for each vehicle fleet.
  • Analyses costs per vehicle, including distance per unit and cost per distance (for example per kilometre or per hour).
  • Calculates depreciation on a daily basis and includes it as part of the total running cost for the vehicle.
  • Stores purchase details, vehicle numbers and current data such as odometer or hour meter readings.
  • Uses user-defined cost types, such as fuel and other expenses, to calculate cost per distance.
