How does Buy Costumes determine the shipping cost for an order?
- A.
Total dollar amount of the order
- B.
Destination of the order
- C.
Total weight of the order
- D.
Based entirely on delivery date
Correct Answer
C. Total weight of the orderExplanation
Buy Costumes determines the shipping cost for an order based on the total weight of the order. The heavier the order, the higher the shipping cost will be. This makes sense as heavier packages require more resources and effort to ship, so it is fair to charge more for shipping. The total dollar amount of the order, destination, and delivery date do not directly affect the shipping cost, as they are not related to the physical weight of the package.Rate this question:
