The Payout Statement of ZipPocket Couriers

≈ 4 min

Farouk Odhiambo has submitted a weekly rider payout and refund statement to ZipPocket's Nairobi Finance Desk on behalf of Rider Account #KE-2241, covering deliveries completed in the week of 1–7 September 2026. The statement requests a total settlement transfer and includes a fuel-supplement line that is governed by ZipPocket's published Rate Card. The Finance Desk has flagged the fuel-supplement rate used on one delivery tier as potentially inconsistent with the current Rate Card and has referred the statement for audit. Your task is to determine whether any line of the statement applies a rate that contradicts the governing Rate Card, and if so, which cross-reference record reveals it.
