QUESTION 1
Consider the main cost component of a road transport enterprise and discuss
in detail how each one of them differs between passenger and freight road
transport.
The Main Cost Components of Road Transport Enterprises: A Comparative
Analysis of Passenger and Freight Operations
Road transport enterprises, whether focused on passenger or freight services, face
distinct cost structures shaped by operational, regulatory, and market factors. While
both sectors share common cost categories such as infrastructure, vehicles, labor, and
fuel, the nature of these costs diverges significantly due to differences in service
requirements, regulatory frameworks, and customer demands. I will look at these cost
components in detail, drawing on theoretical insights from the study guide and external
sources to highlight the unique challenges faced by each sector.
