Formula
Gallons = miles ÷ miles per gallon.
Cost = gallons × price per gallon. Cost per mile = price ÷ miles per gallon. Hourly fuel = hours × gallons per hour. Reimbursement = miles × rate per mile.

Fuel consumption calculator for gallons and cost
This fuel consumption calculator divides miles by miles per gallon, or multiplies hours by gallons per hour. The reimbursement mode is a mileage reimbursement calculator: miles times the rate per mile you enter.
Fuel used
12.00gal
Fuel cost$42.00
Cost per mile$0.14
Planning estimate from the numbers you enter. Coverage, density, waste and price are assumptions, not a supplier quote or an engineering specification.
How it works
Gallons are distance divided by economy.
Trip fuel is miles divided by miles per gallon. Cost is those gallons times your price per gallon. Cost per mile is the price per gallon divided by miles per gallon, which is the cost per mile calculator result on the same screen. Equipment and generators often burn by the hour instead of the mile. Hours times gallons per hour is the generator fuel consumption calculator path. Reimbursement does not need miles per gallon. It is miles times the rate you pay. Type the rate your business uses. This page does not publish a mileage allowance.

Example
300 miles at 25 miles per gallon and $3.50 a gallon.
The trip uses 12.00 gallons and costs $42.00. Cost per mile is $0.14. Switch to hours for a generator that burns 0.5 gallons an hour, or to reimbursement and enter the rate per mile you actually pay.
03
Tips
Nameplate economy is not the tank you empty.
Idle time, load, and a dirty filter move gallons per hour. Use the figure from the machine's hour meter and the fuel you added, then type that gallons-per-hour number. The placeholder is not a test of any model.
04
Equipment
The fuel bill is not the machine price.
If you are buying the equipment that burns the fuel, and the price is between $15,000 and $2 million, the button opens an equipment application. The gallon total is not sent as the amount.
Important questions
Know what to expect.
How does the mileage reimbursement calculator mode work?+
Choose mileage reimbursement, enter the miles, and enter the dollars per mile. The result is the product. It does not look up a published allowance. Use the rate your records require.
Where is the cost per mile calculator?+
On the miles and MPG view, cost per mile is the fuel price divided by miles per gallon. It is fuel only. It does not add maintenance, tires, or insurance.
How do I run a generator fuel consumption calculator?+
Choose hours and gallons per hour. Eight hours at 0.5 gallons per hour is 4 gallons. Multiply by your price per gallon for the cost. Use the burn rate you measured or the one in the manual, not a guess this page invented.
Does this assume a vehicle category?+
No. It uses the miles, the economy, or the hourly burn you type. It does not classify the equipment. Dengaro arranges equipment financing for the machine that burns the fuel.
