Subject:  University Mileage Reimbursement Rate Increase

The IRS has announced that it is increasing the standard mileage rate from
31 cents per mile to 32.5 cents per mile.  The increase in the mileage rate is
based on annual study of the fixed and variable costs of operating an
automobile conducted on behalf of the IRS by an independent contractor.  The
change is effective for transportation expenses paid or incurred by
employees on or after January 1, 2000. 

It has been the University's practice to follow the IRS standard mileage
rate so that mileage reimbursements to employees who travel on University
business will not result in additional taxable income for those employees.
