How much would I spend traveling from Nashville to Chattanooga & staying for 2 days in the cheapest hotel?
My Boss wants to know how much I would need for this trip. Please include gas going and coming back that would help too.

Answer 1 :
It is about 135 miles each way, and figuring 20 miles per gallon and $3.50 per gallon, that is about $48 in gas. However, the IRS allows 55.5 cents a mile, so your boss should pay you $149.85 if you are using your car for business. (Your mileage may be different depending on where you start in Nashville and where you go in Chattanooga.) The cheapest hotel in Chattanooga is about $40 a night. That includes dirt, bed bugs, and bad service. I suggest you look at www.tripadvisor.com for a place to stay since it includes both rates and reviews. You can sort using the "Price" tab and using the rates slide. Add about 20% for sales tax and hotel tax.
