2011 IRS Mileage Rate

The 2011 Standard IRS Mileage Rate for the use of a car during the final trip from the origin location to the final destination is $0.19 per mile. Companies reimbursing mileage to employees on their final trip need to be aware of this difference from the standard business mileage reimbursement.

The standard business mileage reimbursement for 2011 is $0.51 per mile. This rate is up 1 cent from 2010 rates. This is a $0.32 sent difference from the moving mileage reimbursement.

Most companies include in their policy the reimbursement of miles driven at the standard business mileage rate. This practice is very common but during most audits by the IRS this is the one overlooked taxable expense that is missed during the taxable reimbursement reporting process.
