Fundamentals of Transportation Curves

  • FT = Firm Transportation
    • Reservation = Fixed Cost
    • Commodity = Variable Cost
  • IT = Interruptible Transportation
    • Commodity = Variable Cost
  • FDQ = Firm Discount Quantity
    • Transport rates fully discounted down to the Lowest Level
  • ZDQ = Zero Discount Quantity
    • Transport rates not discounted at all, at max rates
  • NDQ = Negative Discount Quantity
    • Representing a premium over max rates
  • NDQ Mult = Negative Discount Quantity Multiplier
    • Multiplier used with the max rate to determine the height of the hockey-stick portion of the transportation curve
