Quarterly Rail Cost Adjustment Factor

The Board has approved the rebased first quarter 1998 rail cost adjustment factor (RCAF) and cost index filed by the Association of American Railroads. As required by statute, the RCAF was rebased using the fourth quarter 1997 index value as the denominator and first quarter 1998 index value as the numerator (10/1/97=1.00). Rebasing is required every five years. The rebased first quarter 1998 RCAF (Unadjusted) is 0.996. The rebased first quarter 1998 RCAF (Adjusted) is 0.657. The rebased first quarter 1998 RCAF-5 is 0.640.
