I was wondering how much I should be paying an employee for using their vehicle for a temporary use while we get a new lease vehicle sorted. The IRD rate of .79 seems extremely high for an older vehicle to be run around in and we do longer trips. What are the AA rates and where can I find them please?

Hi there,
We have a running cost report available for purchase, this is categorised by engine/vehicle size and information obtained from new vehicles up to 5 years old and travelling a distance of 14,000km a year.
The information provided may be used as a guideline for older vehicles outside this range, or the IRD rate of 79c/km is often used.
If you want to purchase our report call 0800 500 333. http://www.aa.co.nz/cars/maintenance/fuel-prices-and-types/vehicle-running-cost/
