Send me your Tariff and I will sort it for you.

I will make a spread sheet that does it all for you (do you have excel?).

Easy, find the cost per mile, multiply by the number of miles! don't forget to add your dead milegae back though if it's a long run, otherwise you'll be working for nothing, like a lot of cabbies seem to do!

You can always use Google Maps to get the excat miles from A to B.
