Question
You want to set up charge calculation for freight orders. Valid charges should consist of a base charge based on the distance and gross weight of the freight order, and a supplemental charge per container that is included in the freight order. Multiple containers are allowed for each freight order, and the charge is based on the container type. The container type can be small, medium, or large. What is the minimum number of charge lines with instruction type "standard" that you must set up?

Explanation
Option B is correct because the scenario requires exactly two distinct charge types: (1) a base charge calculated from distance and gross weight, and (2) a supplemental charge per container. Each charge type requires its own standard instruction charge line, regardless of how many container types exist - the three container types (small, medium, large) are handled within the single supplemental charge line via a rate or condition table, not as separate lines.
Why the distractors fail:
- A (0) is wrong because you cannot configure any charge calculation without at least one charge line - zero lines means no charges are set up at all.
- C (1) is wrong because you cannot merge a distance/weight-based charge and a per-container charge into a single line; they have fundamentally different calculation bases and must be separate.
- D (3) is wrong because the three container types do not each require their own charge line - container type differentiation is done through scale/rate tables within one charge line, not by multiplying lines.
Memory tip: Count the calculation logics, not the data values. "Distance + weight" is one logic, "per container type" is one logic = 2 lines. The small/medium/large distinction is just data inside the second line.
