Object level	Object	Original freight costs	Decreased freight costs	Decreased by
1	Load A	0	-100	100
2	Shipment 1	0	-50	50
2	Shipment 2	0	-50	50
3	Shipment 1, line 10	0	-25	25
3	Shipment 1, line 20	0	-25	25
3	Shipment 2, line 10	50	25	25
3	Shipment 2, line 20	- 50	-75	25
3	Shipment 2, line 30	0	0	0

The USD 100 decrease of Load A is proportionally distributed among both shipments, USD 50 for each shipment. Similarly, for each shipment line of Shipment 1 the freight costs are decreased by USD 25.

Shipment 2, line 10: 50 / (50 + 50) * 50 = 25.

USD 50 is the original freight cost amount of shipment line 10. USD 100 (= 50 + 50) is the original amount of the shipment lines of Shipment 2. The shipment is decreased by USD 50. Shipment line 10 is decreased by USD 25.

Shipment 2, line 20: 50 / (50 + 50) * 50 = 25

For line 20, the freight cost decrease is also USD 25. This amount is subtracted from the original value of USD -50, which results in the new amount of USD -75.

Shipment 2, line 30: 0 / (50 + 50) * 50 = 0
