              Update on the Methodology for Amtrak Performance Tracking (APT) Vol. 2 - Appendix A & B_PDFa.pdf (1.26 MB)

      
              The Appendices presented below are a continuation of an annual data update which began with the publication of the 2016 Update on the Methodology for Amtrak Cost Accounting Amtrak Performance Tracking (APT).1 The 2016 report described Amtrak’s implemented APT cost allocation methodology and the report appendices displayed Fiscal Year 2014 summary data from Amtrak’s accounting system. Subsequent annual updates of the data appendices were published, most recently in January 2021 with Fiscal Year 2020 data.2 The data presented within were captured in October 2021 and consist of unaudited figures from APT allocated data available at that time and do not reflect any subsequent adjustments or corrections. The figures are intended only to provide a general snapshot of the relative size of Amtrak’s business and may not directly align with other published Amtrak reports, based on
differences in reporting methodologies. The data described in the summary paragraphs below and within the appendices should be viewed holistically and do not necessarily account for changes within the cost center, family, or subfamily structures over time. For an analysis of the families and subfamilies themselves as well as an analysis of any changes since the 2016 report, see Sections 4 and 5 from the current version of the methodology report, Update on the Methodology for Amtrak Performance Tracking (APT), Volume One: Methodology Update Report.
