Amount ($)
Formula
INCOME:      
Ticket:
$ 3618
134 $ / pax * h = 6*134*4.5
Cargo:
$ 1695
0.55 $ / lbs * h = 685*0.55*4.5
SPENT:
 
 
 
DOC:
$ 1296
TEP * D-Factor * h = 1200 HP * 0.24 * 4.5
Fuel:
$ 859
(S.F.C. x HP) - 30% * FP * h =
(0.702 * 1200) *0.666 * 0.34 * 4.5
EARNINGS:
$ 3158

TICKET = n(PAX) * $134 * TripTime

CARGO = lbs * $0.55 * TripTime

DOC = (Total Enginepower) * D-Factor * TripTime

FUEL = (S.F.C. x HP) * 0.666 * 0.34$/lb * TripTime
