FTZ Duty Savings Report

The FTZ Duty Savings Report allows users to determine the savings gained through the implementation of a Foreign-Trade Zone system. Savings are calculated in six major areas:
  • Inverted Duty Savings
  • Export Duty Savings
  • Scrap Duty Savings
  • Recoverable Waste Duty Savings
  • Merchandise Process Fee Savings
  • Deferred Duty Savings
This screen can be opened by choosing
FTZ Duty Savings
from the Reports menu.
FTZ Duty Savings Reports – Calculation Displays
Description
Foreign Goods Duty Savings
Displays the Entered Foreign Value as the total CF7501 foreign part value and both the Potential Duty of the foreign parts and the Actual Duty entered on the CF7501.
Inverted Duty Savings
Displays the Entered Foreign Value as the total CF7501 Non-Preferential Foreign part value. The Potential Duty corresponds to the non-preferential foreign component duty and Actual Duty to the non-preferential finished good duty. The Inverted Duty Savings is derived from paying duty at the finished good rate as opposed to the component rate for non-preferential foreign parts.
Export Duty Savings
Displays the Exported Foreign Value as the total CF7512 part value and the Export Duty Savings, which is the total CF7512 savings. These savings are derived by calculating the amount of duty which would have been paid on the corresponding parts, had they been entered into U.S. territory prior to export.
Scrap Duty Savings
Displays the total of the scrap part value and total scrap savings. This is referred to as the Scrapped Foreign Value. These savings are derived by calculating the amount of duty which would have been paid on the corresponding parts, had they been entered into U.S. territory prior to scrapping.
Recoverable Waste Duty Savings
Displays the Entered Foreign Value as the total part value released from scrap as recoverable and Potential Duty. The Recoverable Foreign Value and Actual Duty correspond to the totals derived from the components entered on the CF7501 once released.
Merchandise Process Fee Savings
Based on filing only one entry per week and having a weekly maximum of $485 of MPF instead of paying MPF on separate entities for each receipt.
Deferred Duty Savings
Displays calculated savings created by delaying the payment of duty from the time of receipt to the time of entry. This calculation uses a given cost of capital provided by the user company’s finance department.
  • Note that the Deferred Duties section of the report shows the Total Deferred Duty and total Deferred Duty Savings aggregated across all transactions included in the report, as well as the Average Days Deferred for all transactions included in the report.
  • Therefore, unless all transactions included in the report have the same number of days deferred, the Deferred Duty Savings shown on the report will not equal the Total Deferred Duty multiplied by the Average Days Deferred and the daily cost of capital.
To generate a report:
  1. Check the appropriate
    Reporting Level
    if more than one Partner ID is listed within a zone.
  2. Specify the
    Beginning Date, Ending Date, MPF Savings Option
    , and
    Cost of Capital
    .

  4. Select
    Print Old Report Version
    if the old version of the report is desired.
The MPF Savings Option operates as follows:
  • One Entry Per CF 214 - The FTZ Duty Savings calculates original MPF based on a grouping by 214. Select this option if the assumption is, were an FTZ not setup, each 214 would have been one entry assessed the MPF (with the maximum/minimum MPF applied accordingly).
  • One Entry Per IT - The FTZ Duty Savings calculates original MPF based on a grouping by ITNum. Select this option if the assumption is, were an FTZ not setup, each ITNum would have been one entry assessed the MPF (with the maximum/minimum MPF applied accordingly).
  • One Entry Per Bill of Lading - The FTZ Duty Savings will calculate original MPF based on a grouping by BOL. Select this option if the assumption is, were an FTZ not setup, each BOL would have been one entry assessed the MPF (with the maximum/minimum MPF applied accordingly).
Accordingly, if there is only one ITNum and one BOL per Form 214, each of the three options yields the same result.
