1. Direct Cost: Indirect Cost, Over heads, Central charges, Deduction to goods Trains.

                                                                                           Depreciation

      Direct cost: 1:LOCO                                                   Interest

                                                                                           Repair & Maintenance

                                                                                           Fuel, Crew

      Requirement of LOCOs

      Total hours require for re of the train

Total working of loco          6 hours * ½ attaching + ½ detaching

Per day 10 hours        7 hours required out of 20 hours = 7 hours

                                 7/20 x100= 35 % of required

                                 Add ½   5 % as spare capacity   125x10/35

Depreciation straight line method

Annual Depreciation=Present cost of asset-scrap value/life of asset =B%

B % of A = Annual Depreciation

b).Interest   Present day cost x requirement of LOCO x 7%

c). Repairs Maintenance = Abstract c 500

     Total expenditure of 2 under abstract 1500/ total no of Electric loco over zone

Over cost of repair & maintenance of LOCOs

      It is converted to requirement of ratio

d).Fuel: Specific Fuel from statistical branch consumption x GTKM of train will give actual requirement s of fuel to run the train annually

This x cost fuel = Cost of Fuel per

Crew                        1 Driver   1 Asst. Drawn Pay + DA+ TR etc + 30% running allowance

                                    20% of cost drawn x 12  annual cost of crew.+ cost of Asst+ requirement  10hours but asked for 7 hours  7/10 x 100 = 70%

 

 2 Coaches i) Depreciation

                  ii).Interest                   as composition is not disturbed requirement of coaches taken as fuel + 10% spares coaches present pay cost of coaches – class wise

Cost to be assumed

Indirect cost

Unit cost:

1. cost of track (P.Way) on GTKM- Unit cost per 1000 GTKM available in coaching unit cost and multiplied by  GTKM.

2. Cost of Signal:  Based on Engine KM (Distance in time table)

                                 Unit cost per EKM x this EKM

3. Cost of transportation: SM, Guard, Pointman etc

                                 Based on the cost of Train KM

1. Cost of OHE: Unit cost of OHE x Total distance of Electrification
2. Terminal Expresses: Based on No of Passenger originated per class.

Unit cost of   Booking

Ticket Checking                     Seat Capacity of each class x No of days of service annually
