摘要：	Average transaction prices in the trucking industry fell 3.1% in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the previous quarter. At the same time, total costs for fuel, labor, services, and materials held steady. This price/cost dynamic yielded an estimated gross operating surplus of $35.72 (per $100 of output sold) for a typical trucking operation. That's down from $39,57 in August 2022, but slightly above the $35.47 five-year average margin estimate. Providers of trucking services will want more in upcoming months. Pressure on prices is strong, but achieving success via higher prices is unlikely in the current environment, Containing costs will be a more achievable goal for the industry. Looking at the third quarter compared to the second quarter in 2023, average prices for airfreight on scheduled flights fell 3.7% while prices for service on chartered flights increased 0.4%. The same quarterly comparisons in 2022 showed tags down 5% and 3.2%, respectively. Meanwhile, analysis of costs for the entire airline industry suggests that direct costs are down half a percentage point and indirect overhead costs up only 0.4%. Strong passenger service prices have relieved the strain from weakness in airfreight. Looking at the entire airline industry, improvements in margins have emerged. Compared to a year ago, the gross operating surplus is up by around $5 per $100 of sales.
