Worked example: one shipment
Say you ship 500 silk babies' woven shirts from China by ocean, declared at $6.00 each (FOB). The value is $3,000.00; duty at 20% is $600.00; 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 $638.33, or $1.28 per unit. The same shipment from Bangladesh comes to $338.33, $0.68 per unit, saving $0.60 per unit.
| Item | China | Bangladesh |

| Duty | $600.00 | $300.00 |
| Merchandise Processing Fee | $34.58 | $34.58 |
