cost of shipping = X total cost 100 the you cross multiply: 100 x (the cost of shipping) is equal to X x (the total cost) 100(the cost of shipping) = X(the total cost) whatever you find x to be is the percent example: cost of shipping is 7 dollars. the total cost of what you bought is 50 dollars. 100(7) = X(50) 700 = 50X 14 = X the percent of shipping from the total cost is 14% hope I helped!

Carriage is transportation cost. If you are selling the product in your store, you would calculate how much it cost to transport the goods to your store, then factor in the per unit shipping cost. Do a simple COGS (cost of goods sold) calculation. Add the per unit shipping cost to the cost make or buy the product per unit, then add your profit mark-up, say 30%.
(1) minimize the cost of shipping m units to ndestinations or (2) maximize the profit of shipping m units to n destinations.
The cost of overhead minus the selling price is supposed to be profit. Unfortunately, there are other charges that might eat away at this profit, like advertising, shipping, and display.
