- Bunker Cost: $184,000 | Canal Fees: $125,000
- Total Operating Cost: $421,000
- Breakeven Rate: $2,850/TEU
Route B (Cape of Good Hope)
- Distance: 14,200 nm | Transit Time: 34 days
- Bunker Cost: $218,000 | Canal Fees: $0
- Total Operating Cost: $436,000
- Breakeven Rate: $2,920/TEU
✓ RECOMMENDATION: Route A saves $15,000 despite longer distance; superior profitability window
Example 2: Capacity Utilization
Vessel: 3,500 TEU Container Ship
Current Load: 2,840 TEU (81% capacity)
