Case Study
A Germany client orders 10,000 jeans, requiring CIFC5 Hamburg, covering All Risks. Purchase cost is 30 RMB per jean, logistics cost is 15,000 RMB, expected profit rate is 10%, foreign exchange rate of Bank of China: 1 USD = 6.21/6.24, commodity added-value tax rate: 17%, rebate tax rate: 13%. Please calculate the CIFC5 Hamburg price.
(P.S.: 25 jeans each carton, carton size: 45 cm x 36 cm x 25cm, G.W. 3.2 kg. Freight to Hamburg: 150 USD per ton by W/M, overseas shipping premium is defined as 0.6%, which covers All Risks)
Analysis
Actual Cost = Purchase Cost – Refund
= 30 – 30 ÷ (1+17%) × 13% = 8.0845 RMB
Domestic Cost = 15,000÷10,000 = 1.5 RMB
Overseas Freight:
= 0.45 × 0.36 × 0.25 ÷ 0.035 = 1.16﹥1 (Light commodity)
F = 0.45 × 0.36 × 0.25×150 ÷ 25 = 0.24 Dollars
= 5.42 Dollars
Therefore, the trading company should charge USD 5.42 CIFC5 Hamburg/piece.
The price of export commodity is composed of
four indispensable components :
