Anybody know how tariffs are calculated?
Let’s assume we have a Cambium radio with country of origin China, and for arguments sake, let’s say the tariff is 10% and the exact amount of the tariff will be passed on to me as a surcharge.
And let’s say the manufacturer’s cost is $50. $40 for parts, $5 for labor, and $5 for shipping to the US. And I guess let’s assume it is shipped from either Cambium’s contract manufacturer in China or a Cambium warehouse in China, to Cambium USA, who ships it to a distributor like WAV or Streakwave, who ships it to me.
Now let’s say MSRP is $100, my discounted price is $80, and Cambium charges the distributor $70. And Cambium’s cost was $50 including shipping to the US.
The tariff is 10%, but 10% of what?
