FREIGHT



Both air transportation and sea transportation used in delivering goods from one country to another. However, the calculation for the changes of air freight and sea freight are different, as following:

1. Sea Freight

Sea freight is changed on a volume (cubic meter or CBM) basis. Firstly, the volume of a carton is calculated by multiplying the length by the width by the height of the carton. Secondly, the freight charges for the deliver merchandise can be calculated by multiplying the volume of a carton by the number of needed cartons by the price charged per cubic meter (CBM).



Sea Freight Charges:

= Volume per carton in CBM x number of cartons x cost of sea freight per    (CBM).

Where
Volume per carton (CBM)

     Length(cm) x Width(cm) x Height(cm)
 = --------     --------     --------
        100              100                 100

        Length(cm) x Width(cm) x Height(cm)
 =  --------------------------------- 
                  1728 x 35.32
