How is the net weight rate sheet constructed?
A. We take all the various costs that apply to a certain shipment, divide that by a certain net weight and we achieve a cost per net pound for a certain weight group. These costs include air carrier freight charges, value (or insurance) charge, tax, Movers handling charge, any applicable sur charges, and the charge for tare. For calculation purposes, we use 15% of the net product weight to establish the tare value.
