## Worked example: one shipment

Say you ship 500 cotton T-shirts & tank tops from China by ocean, declared at $6.00 each (FOB). The value is $3,000.00; duty at 36.5% is $1,095.00; over $2,500 it is a formal entry, so the Merchandise Processing Fee is $34.58; the Harbor Maintenance Fee is $3.75. Duty and fees come to $1,133.33, or $2.27 per unit. The same shipment from Bangladesh comes to $833.33, $1.67 per unit, saving $0.60 per unit.
