The model estimates monthly deliveries from daily throughput and operating days, then computes variable cost drivers (fuel, labor, maintenance) and adds fixed overhead (lease, insurance, dispatch tooling). Failed-delivery retries are modeled as an additional monthly penalty.
cost per delivery = total monthly cost ÷ monthly deliveriesHelp dispatch and finance align on delivery unit economics.
