Summary of Fare Allocation Methodology and Anticipated Cash Farebox Revenues Allocated
to the City of Boulder/Boulder County for Cost Sharing Agreement for Jump and Bound
Service
For the Period January 7, 2007 - May 5, 2007
Methodology
RTD shall credit the City of Boulder and Boulder County for the receipt of cash farebox
revenues generated on Jump and Bound service according to the following methodology:
Average farebox (cash) revenue per boarding for the Jump and Bound will be calculated and
multiplied by daily passenger boardings on each the Jump and Bound to determine average
daily cash revenue to be allocated towards the Jump and Bound services. The average daily
cash revenue figure will be adjusted by multiplying the average daily cash revanue by the
percentage of daily service hours paid for by the City and County for each route to the total
daily service hours operated for each route, the Jump and Bound. The resulting revenue
figure for each the Jump and the Bound will then be adjusted by a factor of .66 to represent
the eiasticity of Bound service as calculated for the period of December 2000 through
December 2002. The resulting figure shall be credited to the City and County as farebox
revenue to apply against the cost of incremental service to be paid by the City and County
for RTD's provision of Jump and Bound services in excess of service levels approved by the
RTD Board of Directors on May 4, 2003.
