Carton Consumption & Costing:
Carton cost calculation rule
= [{(Length + width + allowance) X (Width + Height + 4)} X 2] / 10000 X Per square liner rate
= [{(60 + 40 + 6) X (40 + 30 + 4)} X 2] / 10000 X $0.80
= [{(106) X (74)} X 2] / 10000 X $0.80
= {(7844 X 2)} / 10000 X $0.80
= 15688 / 10000 X $0.80
= 1.5688 X $0.80
= $1.25504 / pc (Per carton rate)
