The answer depends upon your agreement with the carrier and the facts involved.

If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

Was the package signed for? If so, who signed for it and where was it received at? Which company did you ship it with and was it insured? What is your company's agreement with the overnight mail company as to lost or misdirected packages? Who is responsibile? Do you have insurance to cover this loss? The list of questions can go on and on. More information is needed.
