• Abstract:
  A summary of the 1993 analysis of cost responsibility, including estimates for 1994 and 1995, is presented. The methodological process is described. The process involves 1) designation of vehicle classes and fleet estimation; 2) revenue estimation and allocation; 3) cost estimation and allocation; and 4) revenue/cost comparison. Based on the analysis, combination trucks pay 46 percent of their assigned costs; buses pay 40 percent of their assigned costs; single-unit trucks, except pickup trucks, pay 98 percent of their assigned costs; passenger cars pay 28 percent more than their assigned costs; and pickup trucks pay nearly twice their assigned costs.
