How much does oil have to drop before we see relief in Mileage Rates?

Last Updated: February 19, 2024

Did you know that oil makes up only 22.8% of the mileage rate? ( see breakdown of IRS mileage rates here ). Therefore, even though oil has dropped 25% that only equates to about 3 cents per mile (6%). Below is a historical look at Mileage Rates, Crude Prices and Avg Fuel Prices. The mileage rate typically is based on the prior year fuel prices as the IRS usually sets the rate Jan 1 each year. As you can see even in 2009 when oil was $53.52 per barrel the rate for 2010 was still 50 ¢ per mile.
