Tariff and Special Quotes Exercise

YOU’LL NEED SOME PAPER & A PENCIL FOR THIS

OPTION 1

We bring the container to our warehouse, unload the lift vans and we deliver.

First you must arrange for Customs Clearance. Your business unit will have a regular customs broker that they use and a standard clearance rate. For quoting purposes for normal used household goods shipments (no alcohol, vehicle,
firearms, non-standard household goods) you can allocate $150 for the customs brokers charge .

Now you call the local trucking company that your branch uses and they advise you that the rate to collect from the
terminal and bring to your warehouse will be as follows:

2000-3999 lbs gross $ 4.50/100 lbs
4000-6999 lbs gross $ 4.00/100 lbs

Shipments will be assessed at 10 lbs/cuft density for transport charges.

Calculating your costs! Record all your costs on a paper for now, when you make the final decision for best option write it on the quote worksheet you printed.
