Read chapter 8 http://www.petronet.ir/documents/10180/2323250/Logistics_and_Supply_Chain_Management

Based on the determination of the EOQ, it is now required to determine the cost to ship. For the purposes of the exercise, use the following value:

Origin: Dhaka, BD airport
Destination: New York City DC
Incoterms: FOB for sea, FCA for air
EOQ: 112 boxes
Dimensions of each box: 4’ X 3’ X 2’
Weight per box: 420 kgs.

Using your resourcefulness, determine the cost, route and transit to ship the EOQ using both air and sea modes. Suggest you contact an air forwarder, NVOCC/steamship line to collect your details. Please present your proposal for routing an air and sea shipment.
