About the Mileage Reimbursement Calculator
This calculator multiplies business miles driven by a per-mile rate to work out mileage reimbursement — the standard method employers and the IRS use to compensate for using a personal vehicle for work, without tracking every gallon of gas or oil change receipt separately.
It's used by freelancers and employees logging trips for expense reports, by small business owners figuring out what to reimburse themselves or their staff, and by anyone estimating a tax deduction for business use of a personal vehicle under the standard mileage method.
The default rate reflects the IRS standard business mileage rate, but the field is fully editable — some employers set their own reimbursement rate above or below the IRS figure, and this calculator works the same either way.
How it’s calculated
Reimbursement is simply miles driven multiplied by the rate per mile. The IRS standard mileage rate is meant to cover the average cost of operating a vehicle — gas, depreciation, maintenance, insurance — bundled into one number, which is why it's typically used instead of tracking every actual expense.
Frequently asked questions
What is the current IRS standard mileage rate?
The IRS sets a standard business mileage rate each year — 67 cents per mile for 2024 — which is prefilled as the default rate here, though you can overwrite it with your employer's own rate or a prior year's figure if that's what applies.
Can I use the standard mileage rate and also deduct gas separately?
No. The standard mileage rate is meant to already cover fuel, depreciation, maintenance and insurance combined — under IRS rules you choose either the standard mileage method or the actual expense method for a given vehicle, not a mix of both.
Does this include commuting miles?
It shouldn't — ordinary commuting between home and a regular workplace generally isn't deductible or reimbursable business mileage. This calculator just multiplies whatever mile figure you enter, so it's on you to log only qualifying business trips.
Why would my employer use a different rate than the IRS standard?
Employers aren't required to use the IRS rate for reimbursement — some set a flat internal rate that's higher or lower. The IRS rate mainly matters directly if you're claiming an unreimbursed mileage deduction yourself, which itself is limited under current tax law for most employees.
