Start with revenue and operating expenses
Load revenue is the amount earned from freight work. Fuel, drivers, maintenance, insurance and other agreed operating costs must be paid before profit is calculated. A truck’s revenue is not the amount available to its fractional owners.
How the management fee works
Radius retains 30% of profit after operating expenses. The remaining 70% is allocated to owners proportionally. Ask for the exact expense definitions, any reserves and how the fee is applied in loss-making periods; those details belong in the written agreement.
A flatbed example, step by step
Take a reference truck price of US$80,000 and daily profit after operating costs of US$1,400. The 30% fee is US$420, leaving US$980 for the owner pool. A US$600 purchase equals 0.75%, so the illustrated allocation is US$7.35 for that operating day. At 25 days it is US$183.75.
Compare the US$600 illustrations
At the supplied daily ranges and 25 operating days, the monthly illustration is US$201.25–227.50 for dry van, US$183.75–210.00 for flatbed and US$192.50–227.50 for reefer. The higher truck price reduces the ownership percentage bought by the same amount. These figures are not verified historical returns.
Cash paid out can differ from a model
A calculator uses fixed assumptions. Real statements must reflect actual work, expenses, downtime and any contractual timing or reserves. Personal tax, currency conversion and transfer charges are not modelled. Ask how earned income becomes an available withdrawal balance.
Keep downtime and buybacks separate
Insurance compensation is a separate scenario for eligible repair downtime and should not be added to operating income for the same days. A company buyback is the sale of your underlying share, not another source of operating profit.
