To abandon calculations for an impersonal 1 ton-mile

The cost of shipping will be a correct indicator only if the unit of measurement used to calculate the cost is a constant and specific value of the output, depending only on production and operational factors, and no other reasons can cause an increase or decrease in the output of these products.


We have already proved above that the growth of tonne-mile production is due to other factors.


We also proved that the calculation of an impersonal 1 ton-mile has no practical significance and that such a calculation does not make it possible to analyze the cost of the current year compared to the past and even with the plan, due to the disparity of the transported goods and the directions in which the transportation was carried out.


We already know that a calculation can be of practical importance, which can specifically answer the questions: 1) how much does it cost to transport 1 ton of cargo in a certain direction, on a certain vessel; 2) for which cargo it is most profitable to use a particular vessel; 3) how much did it cost to transport 1 ton of cargo this year compared to the cost of transporting the same cargo in previous years, and therefore, to establish the reasons why 4) whether the actual cost of 1 ton of a certain cargo corresponds to the existing tariffs for the transportation of this cargo.


Having received such a calculation, we will be able, firstly, to develop maritime transportation, since it will be easy to prove their cheapness compared to other modes of transport; secondly, to use tonnage most effectively; thirdly, to influence the factors contributing to the increase in cost and achieve its reduction; fourthly, it is correct to build tariffs for transportation and achieve profitability of the marine fleet.


That's why we need to abandon the calculation of an impersonal 1 ton-mile.


If the calculation of tonne-mile products should be left to determine the carrying capacity of the fleet so that when planning, it is easy and fast to obtain aggregated estimates of costs and revenues based on average data, then 1 ton of a certain type of cargo for each individual direction and type of vessel should be chosen as the unit of measurement for calculating the cost of transport products. Accordingly, it is necessary to plan and take into account the cost.


A meeting of navy specialists convened in November 1945 in Moscow on the creation of a new methodology for calculating the cost of transport products, developed principles that should be used as the basis for calculating one specific ton of cargo in certain directions and types of vessels. These principles of the new methodology for calculating transport products will be covered in future publications.
