Higher employee compensation and benefit costs largely resulting from (1) volume growth, which resulted in an increase in average daily union labor hours of 1.7%; (2) union pay rate and benefit increases; and (3) growth in the overall size of the workforce due to facility expansions. Additionally, we incurred higher employee healthcare expenses due to headcount and contractual contribution rate increases to multiemployer plans. These increases were partially offset by productivity improvements and lower pension expense due to higher discount rates used to measure the pension benefit obligation, which reduced service costs.
|
•
|
Higher fuel expense in the first quarter of 2019 primarily due to higher alternative fuel costs year over year as the prior year cost was lower due to the receipt of alternative fuel tax credits. Additionally, expansion of our air network and increased volume resulted in higher fuel usage (an increase in package delivery miles driven of 3.9% and an increase in aircraft block hours of 5.2%), partially offset by year over year declines in fuel prices and increased fuel efficiency as miles-per-gallon increased.
|
•
|
The increases described above were partially offset by a slight decrease in costs associated with outside contract carriers driven by diverting volume to owned assets.

|
•
|
Health and welfare costs increased $67 million for the first quarter, largely due to increased contributions to multiemployer plans due to contractual contribution rate increases and an overall increase in the size of the workforce. These increases were offset by reductions in our non-union plans due to decreases in headcount and other program changes.
|
•
|
Pension and retirement benefits remained flat for the first quarter of 2019 compared with 2018. Contractually mandated increases in contributions to multiemployer plans were largely offset by decreases in UPS sponsored benefit plans, primarily due to higher discount rates, driving a decrease in service costs, and lower Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation premiums due to planned voluntary pension contributions.
|
•
|
Vacation, holiday, bonus, excused absence, payroll tax and other expenses increased $7 million for the first quarter, primarily driven by higher bonus pay and separation pay. These increases were offset by lower federal unemployment taxes.
|
•
|
Workers' compensation expense decreased $19 million for the first quarter. Insurance reserves are established based on actuarial estimates of the loss that we will ultimately incur on reported workers' compensation claims, as well as estimates of claims that have been incurred but not reported, and take into account a number of factors including our history of claim losses, payroll growth and the impact of safety improvement initiatives.
|
•
|
An increase in expense of $90 million arising from capital investments in several large facilities and other new projects coming into service. This had the effect of decreasing net income by $69 million or $0.08 per share on a basic and diluted basis in 2019; and
|
•
|
A decrease in expense of $127 million resulting from revisions to our estimates of useful lives for building improvements, vehicles and plant equipment as part of our ongoing investment in transformation. This had the effect of increasing net income by $98 million or $0.11 per share on a basic and diluted basis.
|
•
|
Forwarding and logistics expense decreased $164 million in the first quarter of 2019 compared with 2018, primarily due to decreases in truckload brokerage freight loads per day and decreases in tonnage and rates in our international air freight forwarding business.
|
•
|
International Package expense decreased $25 million in the first quarter of 2019 compared with 2018, primarily due to a favorable impact from currency exchange rate movements.
|
•
|
U.S. Domestic Package expense decreased $4 million in the first quarter of 2019 compared with 2018, primarily due to lower overall usage of third-party transportation carriers.
|
•
|
UPS Freight expense increased $1 million in the first quarter of 2019 compared with 2018, primarily due to increases in our ground freight pricing product. These increases were offset by lower LTL shipments and lower fuel surcharges passed on to us by outside carriers.
|
•
|
We incurred additional purchased transportation expense of $13 million in the first quarter of 2019 compared with 2018 related to leasing and chartering additional aircraft to handle increased air volume.
