Load Pro-Ration example – by cube adjusted weight
This example illustrates how load costs will be pro-rated to the associated shipment legs based exclusively on each leg’s percentage of the total cube adjusted weight. In this case, load pro-ration will not consider the distance that each shipment needs to move.
Consider the load as follows:
- Load Trailer Equipment Cube Adjustment for Pro-Ration: 14
- Load Total Cost: 779.5
Shipment |
Volume (Cu. ft) |
Weight (LB) |
Cube Adjusted Weight* |
Dim Weight** |
Allocation (%) | Pro-Rated Cost |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
WWW | 500 | 30000 | 7000 | 30000 | 41.67 (as 30000/72000*100) | 324.79 |
XXX | 3000 | 10000 | 42000 | 42000 | 58.33 (as 42000/72000*100) | 454.71 |
Total: | 72000 | 100 | 779.5 |
Notes:
- *Cube Adjusted Weight = (Volume * Cube Adjustment for Pro-Ration)
- **Dim Weight = Max (Weight, Cube Adjusted Weight)
