LOW PAYING VERSUS HIGH PAYING CARGO IN THE LINER TRADE

The liner trade has its own rules and regulations for setting freight rates. High paying and low paying cargoes are carried by the same ship on the same voyage. This study deals with the optimum combination of high and low paying cargoes for different conditions. Some examples are used to form more general rules for deciding whether to accept shipments of low paying cargo.
