Trip/Booking Pro-Ration example – by load cube adjusted weight

This section illustrates how trip/booking level costs will be pro-rated to the associated loads based on the cube adjusted weight for each load on the trip/booking.

Allocation percentage of Trip/Booking level charges to each Load is determined as dimensional weight of the Load divided by sum of dimensional weight of all the Loads in the Trip/Booking. Dimensional Weight of the Load is computed based on Load’s weight and volume.

Consider a trip consisting of two loads with the following details:

Tariff setup:

  • Trip level charge: $1000 (Flat)
  • Load level charge: $0.1/lb

Global Settings:

  • Default Cube Adjustment for Pro-Ration: 14
