What is the standard reimbursment for mileage?

Question

My company pays 39 cents a mile. Is that below, about, or above average?

Answer 1

every company is different.  Mine only pays 38 cents a mile (and if you mileage is less than you normally would travel to work then they reimburse nothing)

Answer 2

I don't know the answer but i would think it depended on what part of the country you are in and the company you work for. Gas is cheaper in the south than the west coast.

Answer 3

The company rate here just went to 43 cents/mile last month.

Answer 4

A lot of companies have standardized on the IRS standard rate. It's 50.5 cents per mile for 2008 -- up from 48.5 cents in 2007.  I think you have a good argument for this, but you never know....

Answer 5

windy it is 47 cents per mile ...uncle danny told me this happy day
