In the rapidly evolving world of ride-hailing, maximizing profits is crucial for drivers. To aid in this endeavor, we have developed a sophisticated calculator and comparison tool. This tool is designed to assess and compare the potential earnings and expenses associated with two different vehicles used for ride-hailing services.
Uber Calculator Structure:
The calculator is built using HTML and JavaScript, featuring a user-friendly interface with input fields for various parameters. The parameters are categorized into three main sections: Car details, Earnings sources, and Common characteristics.
Cars Details:
Vehicle specifications such as car name, miles per gallon (MPG), manufacturing year, and the initial cost of the car.
Earnings Sources:
Base fare price, earnings per mile, earnings per minute, tips percentage, other profits (e.g., surge percentage), average daily trips, average trip duration, and distance.
Common Characteristics:
Gas price, working days of the week, holidays, weekly cleaning cost, and potential losses and expenses like non-passenger driving time, non-passenger mileage, waiting time, maintenance costs, repair costs, insurance, and registration costs.
How to Use:
1. Input the relevant details for each car.
2. Click the "Compare the profits and expenses of the two cars" button.
Calculation Logic:
The JavaScript script calculates various parameters such as daily earnings, expenses, net earnings, and additional details based on the provided inputs.
1. Age Check:
- Ensures the age of the cars is within a reasonable range.
2. Earnings Calculation:
- Calculates daily earnings, including base fare, mileage earnings, time earnings, tips, and other profits for each car.
