How to use it

  1. Enter your round-trip commute distance.
  2. Enter how many days a week you drive and any parking or tolls.
  3. Try work-from-home days to see the saving.

How it works

Yearly cost = days × weeks (48 working weeks assumed) × (distance ÷ MPG × price + parking). Fuel is only part of it; the IRS business mileage rate (around 70¢/mile in 2025) gives a sense of the full per-mile cost including wear and depreciation.
