Abstract
Based on the advantages and disadvantages of two operation modes of port railway lines, including independent operation by port enterprises and entrusted operation towards the China railway corporation, this study analyzes the formation of railway lines revenue and cost under the existing system, builds a function of cost and volume, calculates the volume balance point of freight cost of different operation modes. Then from the angle of investment builders, this study constructs the functional relationship among revenue, operating cost and traffic volume, and calculates the profit balance point of port railway lines under different circumstances.
