2012年国际货运代理考试辅导讲义(第一章)
一、国际货运代理的概念国际货运代理来源于英文的“internationalFreightForwarder”1、我国政府主管部门(商务部)对国际货运代理出台的定义“国际货运代理业”:是指接受进出口货物收货人、发货人的委托,以委托人的名义或者以自己的名义,为委托人办理国际货物运输及相关业务并收取服务报酬的行业。
从事的业务:国际代理企业可以作为进出口货物收货人、发货人的代理人,也可以作为独立经营人,从事国际货运代理业务。
2、国际货运代理协会联合会(FIATA)制定的国际货运代理的定义1996年10月颁布的《国际货运代理服务示范条例》(又称为FIATA货运代理标准交易条件)中给国际货运代理人和国际货运代理服务做出了定义。
“国际货运代理”是指与客户签订国际货运代理服务合同的人。
(04年推出)“国际货运代理及物流服务”指的是所有和货物的运输相关的服务,及货物的拼箱、储存、处理、包装和配送等相关的服务和上述服务相关的辅助性及咨询服务,其中包括,但不局限于海关和财政事务、货物的官方申报、安排货物的保险、代收或支付货物相关的款项和单证等服务。
【09真题】3、FIATA对“国际货运代理及物流服务”的最新定义指的是:所有和货物的运输(即采用单一的模式或多式联运模式所完成的运输)相关的服务,及货物的拼箱、储存、处理、包装或配送等相关的服务,和与上述服务的辅助性及咨询服务,其中包括,但不局限于海关和财政事务、货物的官方申报、安排货物的保险、代收或支付货物相关的款项与单证等服务。
()正确3、国际货运代理的性质国际货运代理人其本质就是“国际货运中间人”。
可以扮演“代理”的角色,也可以扮演“当事人”角色。
国际货运代理在社会产业结构中属于第三产业服务行业。
【09】2、国际货运代理人以自己的名义与第三人签订合同,往往被认定为当事人并承担当事人的责任。
()正确二、国际货运代理业务范围(一)货运代理的服务对象1、货方2、国家管理部门3、实际承运人4、储存装卸单位5、物流服务中的工商企业等【08真题】73.国际货运代理人所从事的业务范围非常广泛,通常为接受客户的委托,完成货物运输的某一个环节或与此有关的各个环节的任务,其服务对象有()。
2012年国际货运代理考试辅导讲义(第二章)
第一节国际货运代理法律地位概述【提示:本节内容大纲要求是“了解”,简单了解大陆法系和普通法系下对货运代理的法律地位的规定有何不同】注意!当前世界上还没有关于国际货运代理法律地位记起责任的统一公约。
一、普通法系国家货运代理法律地位货运代理的法律地位以代理的概念为基础。
二、大陆法系国际货运代理法律地位货运代理的法律地位一般由各国的《商法典》来确定。
所以各国也存在差异。
1、法国“运输代理”——对结果负责,当事人责任。
“货物转运代理”——代理人责任实际运输过程中,法国法律允许发货人在货运代理和承运人之间做出选择。
2、德国除非本人亲自执行运输,否则不承担合理履行运输合同的责任。
德国法律下,托运人对因未合理履行运输引起的损失只能向承运人追偿。
3、我国货运代理可以“以委托人的名义或者以自己的名义”行事。
即货运代理人从事的业务是以被代理人的名义行事,则为“代理人”,若以自己的名义行事,则为“当事人”。
【07年】32、对于国际货运代理是作为代理人还是当事人的法律地位,国际上通常有强制性的法律法规的规定。
( ) 错第二节我国有关代理法律规定【提示:本节内容大纲要求是“掌握”,分析历年真题,一般会涉及有2分左右的题目】备注!我国目前尚未有关于国际货运代理法律,所以涉及这方面的纠纷通常适用下列法律:★代理人——《中华人民共和国民法通则》(以下简称《民法通则》);★承运人、多式联运人或仓储保管人——《合同法》、《海商法》、《海事诉讼程序法》一、《民法通则》的有关规定(一)、代理的特征及权利1、概念:代理是指代理人以被代理人名义在代理权限内进行直接对被代理人发生效力的法律行为。
2、代理具有以下四个基本特征(1)代理行为必须是具有法律意义的行为;(2)代理人独立进行意思表示(3)以被代理人本人名义为法律行为(4)直接对被代理人发生效力,由被代理人承受该行为的一切法律后果,包括权利、义务、费用、损害赔偿等3、被代理人授予代理人的代理权,其范围依活动内容可分为三种情况(1)专就某项事务代理法律行为,称一次委托(2)在一定时期内代理同类的法律行为,称特别委托(3)在一定时期内就某项事务及于此事务有关的一系列活动代理法律行为,称总委托。

The second steps we need negotiate with customers about the price, products, service etc. In this step we should make an 43 to our customers, and the costumers will make a confirmation of 44 or non-acceptance. After all essential factors of contract are confirmed, we should sign contract with our customer. The last step is execution of contract, in this step we need arrange shipment, prepare relative shipment documents and effect insurance if any etc. Of course our customer should also make 45 by L/C or T/T according to the contract stipulations.41.A. contract performanceB. contract signingC. contract paymentD. contract shipment42.A. marketB. productC. customerD. seller43.A. inquireB. counterofferC. offerD. acceptance44.A. inquireB. acceptanceC. offerD. quotation45.A. customs clearanceB. paymentC. shipmentD. production答案:BCCBBThe latest edition of “Inconterms”is “Inconterms 2000”,which was amended in July1999 by 41 and published in January 1, 2000. The “Inconterms 2000” includes 13 different international trade terms. They specify at which point the risk of loss and/or damage passes from the seller to buyer as well as which party pays for specific activities. FOB, 42 and CIF are the traditional three trade terms among them, which are most widely used in international trade. Like CIF, the 43 must pay the costs and freight and insurance necessary to bring the goods to the named port of destination. While the new three terms FCA, CPT and CIP developed on the basis of the traditional ones. The traditional three terms can be used only for sea or inland waterway transport and the new three terms can be used for any mode of transport especially 44 . Take CPT and CFR for example, the major difference is that CFR can only be used for sea and inland waterway transport, while CPT can be used for any mode of transport, if the parties do not intend to deliver the goods across the ship’s rail, the 45 term is preferred.46.A.

2012年货运代理考试理论与实务章节辅导讲义(一)
第一节国际货代与货运保险关系【提示:本节内容大纲的要求是“熟悉”,重点掌握保险单证的种类和保险费的计算】一、货代责任险与货运保险关系概述(一)、货代责任保险责任保险就是以被保险人对第三者依法应承担的损害赔偿责任为保险标的的保险。
(二)、货物运输保险是指以运输过程中的货物作为保险标的,保险人对保险货物在运输中发生保险责任范围内的保险事故而造成的损失承担赔偿责任的财产保险。
二者关系:实践中,发生货运事故后,货主从保险人那里得到赔偿;保险人取得了代位求偿权后,可能向右过错的货代企业追偿;货代企业则可以根据责任险由保险责任险的保险人来赔偿损失。
二、货运保险合同与保险单证(一)、货物运输保险合同保险合同是投保人与保险人约定保险权利和义务关系的协议。
(二)、保险单证保险单据的总类很多,我国常用的单证主要有保险单、保险凭证和联合凭证。
1、保险单保险单(insurance policy),又称大保单,是一种正规的保险合同,使用最为广泛,可以转让2、保险凭证:保险凭证(insurance certificate),又称小保单,是一种简化的保险合同。
具有与保险单相同的法律效力;但是不能作为议付单据。
3、联合凭证(combined certificate),是一种将发票和保险单相结合的保险单据。
它是最简单的一种保险单据。
三、投保险别与保险费(一)、货物运输保险的做法1、出口货物保险的做法——出口商办理2、进口货物保险的做法——进口商办理(二)、投保险别的选择(三)、保险金额和保险费的计算1投保责任:取决于使用的贸易术语。
2、保险金额的确定:保险加成的办法,国际上习惯按CIF价值得110%投保,即保险加成率为10%!但在通货膨胀比较严重和利息率比较高时,买方也会要求提高投保加成,对此,应在合同中明确规定,如果加成部分过大,应事先征得保险公司同意。
计算公式为:保险费=保险金额×保险费率保险金额= CIF价(或CIP价格)×(1+保险加成率)例题:某出口公司按照CIF条件出口一批服装,根据交易投保平安险,已知成交金额为25000美元,保险费率为0.4%,求保险费。

PART IIANSWERS TO END-OF-CHAPTER QUESTIONSCHAPTER 9: FACILITY LOCATION9-1. Explain how the location decision process involves several layers of screening or focus.The initial focus is on the region, the delineation of which can vary on whether a company has a multinational or domestic focus. The next focus is more precise; it usually involves a selection of the area(s) in which the facility will be located. After this has been determined, a detailed examination of various locations within the selected area is appropriate.9-2. How have cost considerations influenced facility location decisions?Today’s cost considerations arise because many consumers are sensitized to buy products only when prices are low. This low-price/low-cost framework has caused many companies to manufacture in countries characterized by plentiful and low-cost labor. In recent years, some organizations are reexamining the low-cost paradigm because low-cost countries often cause longer order cycles due to being long distances from consumer markets. In addition, some low-cost labor countries, such as China, are no longer considered sources of low-cost labor. Some companies are moving production from previously low-cost countries to currently low-cost countries while some have adopted nearsourcing, in which companies reconfigure their logistics networks to bring some production facilities closer to key consumer markets.9-3. In what way is the location of customer markets a strategic consideration in facility location?Improvements in transportation and technology have allowed consumers to migrate relatively easily from one region or country to another and this migration requires a change in distribution patterns—hence, facility location. Economic growth is another variable that influences the location of customer markets in the sense that organizations sometimes expand their geographic scope to serve new customers. Sustainability is another strategic consideration; a key sustainability issue involves the sourcing of products, and an emerging trend involves companies that purchase locally grown or produced foods.9-4. Discuss the factors that influence the number of facilities that a firm chooses to operate.Rather than asking, “Where should a new facility be located?” organizat ions should be thinking about the optimal number of facilities in the system. The need for additional facilities often arises when an organization’s service performance from existing facilities drops below “acceptable” levels. Most analytical procedures for determining the numberof facilities are computerized because of the vast number of permutations involved, as well as the complementary relationships between current facilities in a distribution network.9-5. How does a raw material’s status as pure, we ight-losing, or weight-gaining influence the facility location decision?A pure raw material is one that loses no weight in manufacturing and, because of this, the processing point can be anywhere near the raw material source and the market. Weight-losing products lose weight during processing; the processing point should be near their source in order to avoid payment of unnecessary transportation charges. Weight-gaining products gain weight during processing; the processing point should be close to the market.9-6. Discuss how population can be viewed as both a market for goods and a source of labor.With respect to a market for goods, attributes of current and potential customers are important. Things such as changes in population size as well as changes in population characteristics are important. With respect to population characteristics, for example, longer life spans can increase the demand for health-related products, such as prescription medicines.There are myriad concerns associated with population as a source of labor, including the size of the workforce, the unemployment rate, the age profile, its skills and education, prevailing wage rates, and union status.9-7. What are maquiladoras? Why do maquiladoras continue to be popular? Maquiladoras are facilities that are located just south of the U.S.–Mexican border. These plants allow for low-cost, duty-free production so long as all the goods are exported from Mexico. Maquiladoras continue to be popular in part because of the narrowing of the wage gap between Mexico and China in recent years. In addition, Mexican maquiladoras can deliver orders to U.S. customers within a week—compared to upwards of four weeks if goods were manufactured in China.9-8. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages to locating manufacturing, assembly, or distribution facilities in countries with relatively low wages.Labor wage rates appear to be a key locational determinant as supply chains become more global in nature. Although absolute wage comparisons are important, relative comparisons can be quite insightful. For example, at prevailing wage rates, a company could have approximately similar compensation costs by hiring six Mexican workers or one U.S. worker.One possible disadvantage is that there are sometimes limits on the number of supervisory personnel that can be brought in from outside the country. There may also be regulations that specify that nationals be trained for and employed in supervisory posts. Countries with low labor costs may also have a number of sweatshops, which can be viewed as organizations that exploit workers and that do not comply with fiscal and legal obligations toward employees.9-9. What are right-to-work laws? How do they influence locational decisions?Right-to-work laws refer to situations in which an individual cannot be compelled to join a union as a condition of employment. Right-to-work laws tend to make particular locations more attractive to potential employers.9-10. What are expatriate workers? What challenges do they face?Expatriate workers are those employees who are sent to other countries to work for extended periods of time. One challenge is that expatriate assignments can be costly, ranging up to $1 million per assignment, and turnover rates currently run between 20 and 40 percent. Much of this turnover tends to be caused by socialization, rather than technical factors; indeed, a leading cause of expatriate turnover involves health-related issues of family members that cannot be addressed in the country of assignment.9-11. How can taxes and incentives impact facility location decisions?Inventory taxes, which are often based on the value of inventory that is held on a particular date, can inhibit facility investment as well as discourage facility expansion within a state that levies inventory taxes. Governments may offer incentive packages as an inducement for firms to locate in a particular area, and in early 2016, the state of Massachusetts provided General Electric with approximately $145 million in incentives to move its corporate headquarters to Boston.9-12. How do transportation considerations influence facility location decisions? Transportation considerations in the form of transportation availability and costs are a key aspect of facility location decisions because transportation decisions represent such a large portion of total logistics costs. Transportation availability refers to the number of transportation modes as well as the number of carriers within each mode that could serve a proposed facility. The evaluation of transportation availability is likely to depend on the type of facility (e.g., manufacturing plant versus distribution center) that is being considered. The existence of transportation competition tends to have both cost and service benefits for potential users; limited competition generally leads to higher transportation costs and means that users have to accept whatever service they receive. Moreover, with respect to transportation costs, centrally located facilities tend to minimize the total transit distances, which likely results in minimum transportation costs.9-13. What are industry clusters, and what are some of their potential advantages? Industry clusters refer to the net advantage which can be gained by a sharing of common locations by various enterprises. Silicon Valley is a well-known industry cluster of high technology firms. With respect to advantages, the relative proximity of manufacturers in a particular cluster could allow for capacity pooling in the sense that a manufacturer with excess capacity could produce goods for a manufacturer with an excess of orders. From a transportation perspective, industry clusters could allow for faster and more consistent delivery as well as lower outbound and inbound transportation costs.9-14. Discuss how multicountry trade agreements have influenced the location of production or distribution facilities.The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) has seen Mexico become the third largest trading partner for the United States. NAFTA has resulted in increased north–south movement of product among the United States, Canada, and Mexico, and the Interstate 35 corridor has become a hotbed for distribution activity.The virtual elimination of trade barriers among members of the European Union (EU) has allowed many companies to reduce the number of relevant distribution facilities. When the EU consisted of 15 countries, the Benelux countries were a favored location for distribution facilities. However, since the EU’s expansion into Central and Eastern European countries, Poland and the Czech Republic have become favored distribution sites because of their relatively central geographic location.9-15. Explain why quality-of-life issues should be considered in the facility location decision.For one, employees who are able to live a reasonable lifestyle tend to be happier and more loyal; happy and loyal employees are less likely to leave their jobs and less likely to offend prospective customers. Second, because many organizations now compete nationally and internationally for talent, less-than-desirable geographic locations might hinder the recruiting process. The quality of life in a region impacts both employee retention and the ability to attract employees.9-16. Beyond the general factors discussed in this chapter, what additional considerations are important when a firm is thinking of locating a facility (facilities) in other countries? The considerations include the relevant legal system, political stability, bureaucratic red tape, corruption, protectionism, nationalism, privatization, expropriation (confiscation), and treaties and trade agreements.9-17. Briefly describe specialized, or site-specific, considerations that should be taken into account in the facility location decision.One consideration is that land may be zoned, which means that there are limits on how the land is used. Union locals have areas of jurisdiction, and a firm’s labor relations manager may have distinct preferences regarding the locals with which he or she is willing to deal. Other issues include a title search, to make sure that a particular parcel of land can be sold and that are no liens against it. Environmental regulations may require that due diligence be carried out with respect to who previously owned a particular site and how it was used. Another specialized characteristic involves the weather, and location decisions can be influenced by the potential for tornadoes, floods, and hurricanes, among others.9-18. What is a free trade zone? What functions might be performed in it?Free trade zones refer to highly specialized sites where nondomestic merchandise may be stored, exhibited, processed, or used in manufacturing operations without being subjected to duties and quotas until the goods or their products enter the customs territory of the zone country.9-19. Discuss advantages and disadvantages to grid systems, such as the center-of-gravity and weighted center-of-gravity approaches.As a general rule, grid systems can be used for locating a single facility so that the distance to existing facilities is minimized—and by extension, transportation costs are minimized as well. In addition, grid systems are relatively simple to apply, and calculations can be done relatively quickly. However, the relative simplicity means that adjustments have to be made to take into account real-world considerations such as taxes, wage rates in particular locations, volume discounts, the cost and quality of transport services, and the fact that transport rates taper with increased distances.9-20. Distinguish between facility relocation and facility closing. How should companies deal with their human resources (workers) in both situations?Facility relocation occurs when a firm decides that it can no longer continue operations in its present facility and must move operations to another facility in order to better serve suppliers and customers. Facility closing, by contrast, occurs when a company decides to discontinue operations at a current site because the operations may no longer be neededor can be absorbed by other facilities.Regardless of whether the issue is relocation or closing, current employees should be kept informed—by their employer—about relevant issues. Information from other sources could cause confusion, anger, and lower morale which could easily offset the productivity of the existing facility. Additional information is generally required for facility closings, in the sense that the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act mandates that employers give 60 days notice about closings and mass layoffs.PART IIICASE SOLUTIONSCASE 9-1: ALL-INDIAN LOGISTICS SERVICESNote: Because this case requires extensive research and information may be difficult to come by, one suggestion is to assign individual questions to groups of students.One of the first things to establish is the approximate distance between Lucknow and Mumbai (approximately 850 miles) as well as between Patna and Mumbai (approximately 1,100 miles).Question 1: With respect to the natural resources needed to make wickable shirts, is Patna or Lucknow the preferred location? Why?It does not appear that either Patna or Lucknow has an advantage with respect to the natural resources needed to make wickable shirts.Question 2: With respect to transportation considerations, is Patna or Lucknow the preferred location? Why?As of 2016, a highway trip between Lucknow and Mumbai is estimated to take 22 hours whereas a highway trip between Patna and Mumbai is estimated to take 30 hours. In addition, Lucknow appears to offer superior rail service to Mumbai in comparison to Patna. Although both cities offer nonstop air service to Mumbai, multiple carriers offer nonstop flights between Lucknow and Mumbai, compared to only one airline providing nonstop flights between Patna and Mumbai. These data suggest that Lucknow would be the preferred location.Question 3: With respect to labor characteristics, is Patna or Lucknow the preferred location? Why?As of 2016, a common minimum wage for skilled labor in Patna was approximately 250 rupees per day, compared to approximately 295 rupees per day in Lucknow. Moreover, Patna has a higher unemployment rate, particularly among women, than does Lucknow. These data suggest that Patna would be the preferred location.Question 4: With respect to quality-of-life considerations, is Patna or Lucknow the preferred location? Why?As of 2016, the cost of living is similar in Patna and Lucknow, and both cities are home to a number of colleges and universities. Patna has much higher levels of reported crime than Lucknow. Indian census data also indicate that the male-to-female ratio is more unbalanced in Patna (885 females for every 1,000 males) than Lucknow (915 females for every 1,000 males), which might indicate that Patna is less hospitable and uninviting to females. This information suggests that Lucknow would be the preferred location.Question 5: Should AILS recommend that the manufacturing plant be located in Patna or Lucknow? Why?Based on the responses to Questions 1–4, Lucknow appears to be preferable to Patna. Question 6: Would you answer to Question 5 change if the shirts are exported through the Port of Kolkata? Why or why not?The distance from Lucknow to Kolkata is approximately 615 miles, and the corresponding highway trip is estimated to take 17 hours. The distance from Patna to Kolkata is approximately 360 miles, and the corresponding highway trip is estimated to take 11 hours. Both Patna and Lucknow offer direct rail service to Kolkata, and both cities also offer nonstop flights to Kolkata. Moreover, both Kolkata and Patna have fixed (as opposed to floating) terminals on India’s National Waterway 1. Due to improved transportation metrics, Patna appears to be a viable option for a manufacturing plant if the shirts are exported through the Port of Kolkata.Question 7: Suppose that AAA decides to nearsource production to Latin America. Keeping in mind the key stipulation presented in the case, where might AAA locate its production plant in Latin America? Why?As of 2016, there are approximately 40 Latin American cities that meet the population stipulation presented in the case. Two of these, Juarez and Tijuana, are Mexican cities located in close proximity to the United States. Juarez, located just south of El Paso, Texas, provides four separate points of entry into the United States and is centrally located relative to Tijuana, which is just south of San Diego, California. It should be noted that Juarez has experienced high levels of crime and violence in recent years.。
