how to calculate the bulk fee
freight is calculated on the basis of the schedule of prices specified by the liner companies. At present, the table of the tariff established by the national shipping companies, its format is not exactly the same, but its basic content is relatively close.
Price list of the shipping companies, generally based on the different types and nature of the goods, as well as the ease of loading and storage, and is divided into a number of levels. The same route, due to the commodity level, the basic rate charged by the shipping company is different. Therefore, the level of goods and the level of freight.
Secondly, the freight calculation standards also vary, such as heavy cargo is generally received by weight of tons freight, light Paohuo be collected by size-ton, some high-value goods by a certain percentage of the FOB value of total income, calculated and collected some goods according to the hybrid approach, for example world pie network information , press the weight ton or measurement tons of total income, and then coupled with a number of ad valorem freight, reflected in the tariff table:
one by weight tons received World pipe network reported that the world's steel pipe network to provide the world's steel pipe network editor , called the weight t, the table set out in the "W" per metric ton or per long ton unit.
Two, cargo volume is calculated and collected, known as the size t, the table set out in the "M", generally a size t as the unit of one cubic meter or 40 cubic feet.
Three, by volume or weight, by the ship is calculated by the sheet as "W / M".
Four, the total income by a certain percentage of the FOB value of goods, known as the Ad from the price of freight (Ad Valorem), the table set out in the Val or AV.
Five. Total income, mixed standards such as W / M plus AV. Weight tons or size t plus the ad valorem freight. In addition, some goods are to be collected by the piece (per unit) or head (per head), the former, such as vehicles, which live animals. For commodities such as grain, ore, coal, due to the larger volume, lower prices of goods, easy handling and other reasons, the shipping companies in order to fight for the supply, and the owner otherwise agreed tariff.
Calculate the shipping costs according to schedule of prices, is a complex task, not only need to be familiar with the basic content of the Tariff and also need to carefully work in the calculation of freight, except in accordance with the hierarchy of routes and commodities, start with a basic fee rate (Basis Rate) to calculate the basic freight, and then also find out the additional costs of the project, will require the expenditure of surcharge 11 counted. These additional cost items in
more, for example, due to the different commodities, different port, or for other reasons, there may be a surcharge, but also keep track of its movements. Generally have the following
additional fee:
a commodity characteristics and income surcharge, such as overweight surcharges, long surcharge, washing, etc.
Second, the additional fee income due to the different circumstances of the port, such as port surcharges, port congestion charge, the optional charge, direct shipping surcharge.
Third, a temporary increase in the surcharge for other reasons, such as fuel surcharges, a depreciation surcharge.
Actually surcharge under various names, far more than this are several. It is worth noting some additional fees, such as port congestion fees, a percentage of freight large compared with the basic freight, ranging from 10 percent, more than 100 per cent, even more than twice. Therefore, the calculation of the surcharge can not be ignored in the calculation of freight.
