Dear K. Art,
The best person to check maybe K. Tharn or K.Nui from transportation team. She may have accessed to the rate to return from US to Asahi.
The weight of one piece is estimate at 0.95 kg. Let's take 1 kg for easy calculation. There are 39pcs to be returned. My guess the freight to return to Asahi is around US$100 and subject to handling charges.
K, Art,
You may want to discuss further with Asahi team if it is worth asking Morton to return the rejected part to Asahi.
Need to consider the freight and handling costs. The total part value for 39pcs is US$537.42.
And Asahi needs to pay for the freight to send replacement qty under same PO.
Pls review and discuss further with Asahi team.
You may want to check with Nate Philips - Quality supervisor in Morton if there are other additional charges involved for returning to Asahi for the 39pcs beside the freight.
regards.
