1. What is the Om Logistics Freight Calculator?

The Om Logistics Freight Calculator is a tool designed to calculate shipping costs for Om Logistics services. It computes freight costs based on weight, rate per kilogram, and any additional charges that may apply to the shipment.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the freight cost formula:

\[ \text{Freight Cost} = (\text{Rate per kg} \times \text{Weight}) + \text{Additional Charges} \]

Where:

\( \text{Rate per kg} \) — Cost per kilogram of the shipment (currency/kg)
\( \text{Weight} \) — Total weight of the shipment (kg)
\( \text{Additional Charges} \) — Any extra fees or surcharges (currency)

Explanation: The formula calculates the base cost by multiplying the rate per kilogram by the total weight, then adds any additional charges to arrive at the final freight cost.
