We operate a number Foton Tunland utes, 2.8L diesel double cab, and I am looking for an appropriate rate to charge employees for private running during holidays. The AA running cost tables use a much higher purchase cost than reality for these vehicles eg ave cost stated at $55k whereas the new, list purchase price for these is around $27K. This will obviously significantly reduce our estimated operating cost per km in comparison to the AA table amount for a similar size but much more expensive vehicle.
By what factor should I reduce the km rate to make it more in line with my scenario?

Our Runing cost report is made up from an average of a selection of vehicles by engine size.
It is to be used as an indication, to accomodate a wide variety of vehilces.
