In this example, we will calculate the minimum freight for a route of 481 km (one way) that will be carried out by a truck with 4 double axles, the cargo of which is solid bulk and the type of operation contracted was “Operation road haulage” (Table A).

In addition to the freight, the carrier wants to include a 5% ICMS surcharge and $200.00 flat-rate tax on the calculated value.
