Which of the following documentation represents a carrier's method of charging for transportation services performed?
Correct Answer: D
A freight invoice is a bill issued by a carrier detailing the charges for transportation services provided. It itemizes the cost associated with the shipment, including the base freight rate, fuel surcharges, accessorial charges, and any other fees applicable. The shipment manifest lists the cargo being transported, and a bill of lading (B/L) serves as a receipt and contract of carriage. A letter of credit (L/C) is a financial document ensuring payment for shipped goods. Therefore, the freight invoice specifically represents the carrier's method of charging for transportation services.References:
