(EXAMPLE: VALUE IS $400 FOR TARIFF 8541402000 AND THE CHARGES ARE $100. THIS IS A 25% RATIO. THE RECORD FOR THE TARIFF NUMBER SHOWS 7% AS THE UPPER LIMIT. 7% OF $400 IS $28. 300% OF THIS FIGURE WOULD BE $84. THEREFORE, CHARGES FROM $1 TO $84 WOULD NOT GENERATE THIS WARNING MESSAGE, BUT CHARGES OF $85 OR HIGHER WOULD.) FOR SHIPMENTS BY AIR, THE CHARGES IS SOMETIMES COMPARED TO THE GROSS WEIGHT (40 REC, POS18-27) AND THIS MESSAGE COULD BE GENERATED EVEN IN A CASE WHERE THE CHARGES/VALUE RATIO WAS BELOW 300% OF THE VALUE.
