FREIGHT RATE CALCULATION

1) LCL cargo calculation Freight rate is calculated base on given dimension and weight

To compare the weight and dimension, whichever takes the higher

Volume, freight rate is calculated from it.

Example calculation : 1 wooden pallet (2,500 kgs/LxWxH 3.0x1.0x2.5cms)

Freight rate : USD 25/w-m

= 2,500 kgs AND by multiplying the LxWxH is equal to 7.5 cbm

(in comparison of weight and dimension whichever is higher for every

1 ton and 1 cbm

= dimension takes a higher than the weight

= freight rate is charged to the dimension of 7.5 cbm x USD 25/w-m =USD 187.50

FCL rate calculation

By simply multiplying the quantity of container to the freight rate and its surcharges

Example calculation : 5 x 20’ STD container

Freight rate : USD 750/20’ STD container

= USD 750 x 5 containers = USD 3,750 for total 5 units of container

Both calculation has to include the local charges either origin or destination

depends On the obligation of buyer and seller and on the term of sale. Various charges.Are

specified the calculation either by weight or measurement by unit of container.
