For the following shipment create a basic pallet plan to hold all of the cargo listed. Calculate the chargeable weight of the palletized load for each truck, air and ocean modes of transport. Then, use the rate tables provided to calculate the total freight charges for each mode. Following, is your cargo and pallet details as well as rates with applicable surcharges for each of the 3 modes of transport. Cargo Details: Pallet size \\( \\quad 1.219 \\mathrm{~m} \\times 1.219 \\mathrm{~m} \\) Pallet height empty \\( \\quad 0.2 \\mathrm{~m} \\quad \\) Pallet weight empty: \\( 17 \\mathrm{kgs} \\) Max. loading height of pallet: \\( 2.4 \\mathrm{~m} \\) (incl. pallet) 35 boxes of jeanseach box measuring \\( 0.4 \\mathrm{~m}(\\mathrm{I}) \\times 0.4 \\mathrm{~m}(\\mathrm{w}) \\times 0.4 \\mathrm{~m}(\\mathrm{~h}) \\) each box \\( 11 \\mathrm{kgs} \\) *You can change orientation of boxes as long as product is suitable for turning boxes to maximize the load - i.e. you wouldn't turn bottles of liquid on their side.\" Air Rates - all surcharges per kg Ocean Rates - CAF is charged at \ of base ocean freight, BAF and OHC are based upon w/m, and both B/L and VGMare flat rates Grade Breakdown: Calculate number of boxes that fit on a pallet: 7 Marks Calculate Actual Weight in Kg/lbs: 6 Marks Calculate volume in \\( \\mathrm{m} 3, \\mathrm{~cm} 3 \\), and \\( \\mathrm{ft} 3: 6 \\) Marks Calculate Weight for Ocean, air and truck: 6 Marks Calculate cost for Ocean, Air and Cost: 15 Marks
