The Zimbabwean government has done it again. ZERA the energy authorities have effected another fuel increase which will see motorists and generator owners having to pay more than $10 a litre.

Below are the new fuel prices as of tomorrow:

Description	Diesel	Petrol
FOB	0.5920	0.5533
Exchange Rate	8.5000	8.5000
Duty (ZIMRA Exchange Rate: 10.2825)	2.7593	2.9251
Oil Company Margin	0.5457	0.5295
Dealer Margin	0.6749	0.6548
Maximum Pump Price in ZWL	10.32	10.01

The government has always said they wanted to increase the prices of fuel so that they would be around the $1 USD mark. This draws them closer to that goal. In fact, going by what some banks are paying the government has exceeded its goal.
