Worked example: one shipment
Say you ship 500 silk women's woven skirts from China by ocean, declared at $8.00 each (FOB). The value is $4,000.00; duty at 26.6% is $1,064.00; over $2,500 it is a formal entry, so the Merchandise Processing Fee is $34.58; the Harbor Maintenance Fee is $5.00. Duty and fees come to $1,103.58, or $2.21 per unit. The same shipment from Bangladesh comes to $703.58, $1.41 per unit, saving $0.80 per unit.
