Free Mileage Reimbursement calculator with clear step-by-step results.
Many mileage schemes pay a higher rate up to an annual threshold and a lower rate beyond it, so a claim straddling that boundary has to be split. Miles already claimed determine how much full-rate allowance is left, and any passenger supplement is added separately.

Full-rate miles = min(claim miles, threshold - miles already claimed)
Total claim
Total = full-rate miles x full rate + remaining miles x reduced rate + passenger miles x supplement
