HOW LANDING COST BY WEIGHT WORKS

Another option for computing the Landing Cost is ‘By Weight’. Distribution of cost per Item purchased will be based on the mass/weight. The higher the weight, the higher the amount will be allocated. This method is commonly used for container transportation.

 



Scenario:

Set the Proportional into ‘Weight’.





Make sure that the Stocks has Weight to use this method.



Item1 Weight: 2

Item2 Weight: 1

 



Application:

The calculation of proportion Weight is as below:


Item1

Custom Duty

(Qty x Weight)/Total (Qty x Weight) x Custom Duty = (2x2)/((2x2)+(2x1))x PHP 10 

= PHP 6.67

Insurance

(Qty x Weight)/Total (Qty x Weight) x Insurance

= (2x2)/((2x2) +(2x1)) x PHP 20

=  PHP 20

Freight

(Qty x Weight)/Total (Qty x Weight) x Freight

= (2x2)/((2x2) +(2x1))x PHP 30

= PHP 13.33

Local Charges
 
(Qty x Weight)/Total (Qty x Weight) x Local Charges

= (2x2)/((2x2) +(2x1)) x PHP 40

= PHP 26.67














 

Item2

Custom Duty

(Qty x Weight)/Total (Qty x Weight) x Custom Duty = (2x1)/((2x2)+(2x1))x 10 php

= PHP 3.33 

Insurance

(Qty x Weight)/Total (Qty x Weight) x Insurance

= (2x1)/((2x2) +(2x1)) x PHP 20

= 6.67 php

Freight

(Qty x Weight)/Total (Qty x Weight) x Freight

= (2x1)/((2x2) +(2x1))x  PHP 30

= PHP 10

Local Charges
 
(Qty x Weight)/Total (Qty x Weight) x Local Charges

= (2x1)/((2x2) +(2x1)) x PHP 40
