Basing Point Pricing System
See basing point.
A system where the buyer will pay a base price, with a set shipping cost added to the total price, depending on how far they are from the base point, or location from which all shipping prices are set.
Transportation charges are added to this basing point (typically the location of product manufacture). More simply, the basing point pricing system will specify transportation costs are added to the basing point location, irrespective of the location from which the product or item is shipped.

up" above one is bearish and at premiums of 30 40 50 percent ie [Bear walking by a river]
calculations of 0.5 very bullish to 1.5 very bearish well those are signs that
have been validated by actual market performance over time well why would we
care about this calculation in the first place, well if we get the answer right as [Man staring at a crystal ball]
