English term or phrase: ABF tax
Det ser ud til at være et alfabetisk indeks uden yderligere tekst, så jeg kan desværre ikke levere en uddybende forklaring. - Hvilken slags afgift kan det være - lufthavns??

american breakfast (,) tax


Explanation:
Det er naturligvis et skud i tågen, men hvis det evt. kan opfattes som to adskilte punkter (dvs. 'abf + tax') og ellers passer i sammenhængen, kan 'abf' stå for 'american breakfast' (i modsætning til fx cbf = continental breakfast).

Ups, har netop lige set, at det drejer sig om et kurerfirma - så har det nok alligevel ikke noget med morgenmad at gøre!!!

Se her, hvad jeg pludselig fandt: http://acronyms.thefreedictionary.com/ABF

Umiddelbart synes jeg dog ikke, at noget af det passer i sammenhængen - kan der måske simpelthen være tale om fragtfirmaet "ABF Freight System"? (http://www.abfs.com/default.asp?bhcp=1) - hvorfor der så end findes en tilsvarende afgift...?

Bare nogle ideer... not for grading!!!
