However, employee may be reimbursed for his actual expenses for those days when the car was used for official business, not to exceed the constructive cost of the car rental, Since the employee would not have been on official business for the enttre month, his constructive cost should be computed on the basis of the weekly or daily rate, whichever rate was available, The Claims Group settlement, which based the calculation of constructive cost on a pro rata monthly rate, is overruled as to this point, DECISION Mr. Jimmy L. Minton, a civilian employee of the United States Marine Corps, appeals our Claims Group settlement.' The settlement determined that Mr. Minton could be allowed reimbursement for certain travel expenses he incurred while on temporary duty travel in Aurora, Colorado, Mr. Minton questions the constructive cost method suggested by our Claims Group in calculating his rental car reimbursement.
