LOAD FACTORLOAD FACTOR: is the ratio of seat kilometers occupied to seat kilometers offered during a period by an undertaking. Alternatively it is the ratio of actual earnings to the expected earnings, at full load including standees allowed
The load factor = Seat kilometers occupied Seat kilometers offered
BOTTLENECKS:
•Week days•Traffic jams•Competitors•Local Trains•Quality of Roads
OCCUPANCY RATIOOccupancy Ratio: = (Passenger kilometers per day) / (Total vehicle kilometers)= (154.63) / (224.84)= 68.77%
EARNING PER KILOMETEREPK= (Total Earnings) / (Total Effective Kilometers)= (5973.05) / (272.82)= 2189.37 ps.
Fuel efficiency can be termed as the relationship between the distances travelled by the vehicle upon the fuel consumed by the vehicle (kmpl) (kilometers per liters of fuel)
