RE: University Mileage Reimbursement Rate Increase

The IRS has announced that it is increasing the standard mileage 
rate for use of a private automobile from 36.0 cents per mile to 
37.5 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 
incurred by employees on or after January 1, 2004.

It has been the University's policy 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.
Accordingly, the UC reimbursement rate is set at 37.5 cents per mile 
effective January 1, 2004.
