Fleet economics guide

Fleet ROI is an output. Start with evidence.

A return percentage is only the final arithmetic. The useful work is verifying collected revenue, every cost, downtime, financing, ownership and resale assumptions for the same vehicle and period.

The calculation chain

Build from operating cash, not a headline yield.

Use one vehicle, one defined period and one currency. Keep actual evidence separate from management estimates and visitor assumptions.

Step 1

Collected gross revenue

Start with cash actually collected for trips, chauffeur assignments or other documented use. Separate VAT, cancellations, discounts, unpaid invoices and related-party activity.

Step 2

Complete operating costs

Subtract driver, finance, insurance, permits, platform fees, maintenance, tyres, fuel or charging, cleaning, parking, accident costs, admin and a downtime reserve.

Step 3

Term and exit

Apply the operating cash to a stated term, add an independently supportable resale assumption, then subtract the initial amount and any acquisition or exit costs.

01

Monthly operating cash

Collected revenue − operating costs − financing costs − risk/downtime reserve.

02

Cash over the review term

Monthly operating cash × number of months, adjusted if the cash flow is seasonal or irregular.

03

Simple scenario outcome

Operating cash over the term + assumed net resale proceeds − initial amount.

04

Decision-quality model

Add dated cash flows, taxes, fees and probability-weighted downside cases. Review the model independently.

Enter your own numbers.

No return is pre-filled. The result changes only when you enter a complete scenario and remains arithmetic—not a forecast.

Your scenario output

Transparent arithmetic.

Monthly operating cash
Operating cash over term
Cash + resale − initial amount
Simple annualised scenario

Not IRR. Excludes any item you did not enter, including tax, legal, acquisition, financing and exit costs. A negative result is possible.

Evidence checklist

Every important input needs a source.

A model becomes useful only when the period, vehicle and counterparty can be reconciled across records.

1
Revenue ledger and bank receipts

Match paid trips and invoices to money collected.

2
Utilisation and downtime

Separate revenue days, idle days, repair days and accident periods.

3
Cost evidence

Invoices, payroll, finance statements, insurance, permits and platform charges.

4
Title and liabilities

Registered owner, security interests, debt and transfer restrictions.

5
Resale support

Comparable vehicles, condition, mileage, net transaction costs and timing.

6
Downside cases

Lower revenue, higher costs, extended downtime and delayed exit.

What return does Mister Ride guarantee?

None. This guide does not promise a return, distribution, payback period, resale value or ownership right.

Is simple annualised return the same as IRR?

No. It is a simplified comparison based on a term. IRR requires dated cash flows and remains dependent on the quality of every input.

Can insurance remove the risk of loss?

No. Coverage, exclusions, deductibles, beneficiaries, claims handling and uninsured losses must be reviewed in the actual policy and documents.
