THE WHOLE OF LIFE
COST CALCULATOR
DAY 3
For many within the fleet profession the biggest challenge when purchasing new vehicles is often
determining the whole of life costs associated with these investments. Is it better to pay a larger cost
upfront or is it worth considering a cheaper option now and investing for down the track? Should
you sell your vehicles now or hold on them to for another 12 or 24 months for a better return?
Many factors contribute to the whole of life cost of a vehicle. These include the vehicle’s fuel
consumption, cost of fuel, kilometres travelled each year, maintenance/repair costs, tyre cost, roadside
assistance, fringe benefits tax, insurance, insurance excess, remarketing costs, decommissioning costs,
interest/notional interest on capital cost of vehicle and vehicle amortisation (difference between
purchase price and residual/sale value).
The Whole of Life Cost Calculator will provide you and your organisation with the total lifecycle cost
of the vehicle represented as total cost, cost per month or year and cents per kilometre. This cost can
then be used to accurately compare different vehicles or to analyse different scenarios for the same
vehicle. Further, you can create a sub asset for a service body that might have a longer effective life and
therefore different residual %.
BREAKOUT SESSION
The impact of fatigue on
the transport task
SPEAKER
Phillip Brooks, Chief Inspector – Stakeholder
Relations Manager NSW Police
Key Benefits:
• Compare up to 4 different vehicles or same
vehicle with 4 scenario’s side by side
What is fatigue, how does it add to the risk of being
involved in a collision and how do we manage it?
• Includes the use of RedBook’s Future Price
Ahead to assist with residual setting
The facts are both surprising and disturbing. Fatigue
has proven to be difficult to measure but its impact on a
person’s ability to drive safely has been the subject of a
number of studies with concerning results.
• Calculate your FBT obligations based on
the statutory method and ability to include
driver contributions
The presentation will focus on the impact of fatigue on all
aspects of the transport task, from the steering wheel to
the board room.
• Export your data easily in the widely used
CSV file format
• The results include ANCAP and Green
Vehicle Guide ratings
• Plan your future fleet purchases more
efficiently and effectively
• Consider the differences between leasing
vs an outright purchase
What is AfMA?
The Australasian Fleet
Management Association
(AfMA) is a member based,
not-for-profit peak industry
body operating throughout
Australia, New Zealand and
South East Asia.
The Whole of Life Cost Calculator is just one
of many free resources and tools supplied
to all active members of the Australasian
Fleet Management Association. Different
membership packages are available to suit
organisations of all shapes and sizes.
The most general factors that cause fatigue are lack of
sleep, bad quality sleep and sleep demands induced by
the internal body clock. Besides these general factors,
prolonged driving (time-on-task) can increase driver fatigue,
especially when drivers do not take sufficient breaks.
AfMA’s membership base is represented across all
industries and levels of government and is responsible
for the management of many hundreds of thousands
fleet vehicles.
Our charter is to promote Fleet Management as a
profession in its own right, to provide knowledge,
information and resources to our Members and to lobby
and advocate on behalf of the fleet industry, put simply
LINKING PEOPLE & KNOWLEDGE, CREATING OUTCOMES.
