Abstract: A mathematical model is developed for the comparison of cost by weight for the movement of freight between the Canadian Forces 'Scheduled Road Freight Service' and the commercial carriers. The study considers in detail the effect of inflation on the various factors which affect the cost that govern those economic consequences which differ between the two alternatives. An example is included to illustrate the methodology.
