Cara Menghitung Fta Savings Calc
learn.whatIsHeading
The Free Trade Agreement Savings Calculator computes the duty reduction available by importing goods under a preferential FTA rate instead of the standard MFN rate, helping businesses quantify the benefit of FTA utilization.
Rumus
Annual Savings = Annual Import Value × (MFN Duty Rate - FTA Preferential Rate)
- V
- Import Value ($) — Annual value of imports eligible for FTA treatment
- MFN
- MFN Rate (%) — Standard most-favored-nation duty rate
- FTA
- FTA Rate (%) — Preferential duty rate under the free trade agreement
- CC
- Compliance Cost ($) — Annual cost of origin documentation and auditing
Panduan Langkah demi Langkah
- 1Identify the applicable free trade agreement between origin and destination country
- 2Look up the MFN (standard) duty rate and the FTA preferential rate for your HTS code
- 3Multiply annual import value by the rate difference to calculate potential savings
- 4Factor in compliance costs (origin documentation, auditing, certificate of origin fees)
Contoh Terpecahkan
Masukan
$5M annual imports from Korea, MFN rate 8%, KORUS FTA rate 0%
Hasil
Savings = $5,000,000 × (0.08 - 0.00) = $400,000/year
Masukan
$2M from Mexico, MFN rate 12%, USMCA rate 0%, compliance cost $5K/year
Hasil
Gross savings = $240,000, Net savings = $235,000/year
Kesalahan Umum yang Harus Dihindari
- ✕Not claiming FTA rates because origin documentation seems burdensome — leaving money on the table
- ✕Assuming FTA rates are automatic — you must claim them and have supporting documentation
- ✕Forgetting that FTA compliance costs (record-keeping, audits) reduce net savings
