Fictional order: three notebooks
Same goods cost 9,000 won; needed Thursday. Arrival and packaging are stipulated order details.
| Item | Separate | Combined |
|---|---|---|
| 상품값 | 9,000원 | 9,000원 |
| 배송비 | 6,000원 | 2,000원 |
| 총액 | 15,000원 | 11,000원 |
| 상자 수 | 3개 | 1개 |
| 도착일 | 수요일 | 금요일 |
Quality, transport distance and total emissions are not supplied.
Learn the expressions
To state what is affected, put that item before 에. The choice or method is the subject; cost, timing or condition is what it affects.
| Expression and use | Korean example |
|---|---|
| What is affected | 배송 방법은 배송비에 영향을 줘요. |
| Two effects | 주문 방법은 포장 상자 수와 받는 날짜에 영향을 줘요. |
| Conditions and trade-offs | 묶음 배송은 배송비가 적은 반면에 더 늦게 도착해요. |
| Limit the scope | 이 주문에서는 묶음 배송 상자가 더 적어요. |
Totals already include item cost and delivery. This tests reading, not arithmetic speed. Box counts alone do not quantify a total change in carbon emissions.
