Frequently asked questions

What is landed cost?

Landed cost is the per-unit cost basis you choose for getting the product to the point where it is ready for the intended use or sale. Add only the purchase, freight, duty, clearance, insurance, packaging and other costs that actually belong in that chosen basis.

Landed Cost

How is duty calculated?

Apply duty to the customs value and rate that are valid for the product classification, origin, destination and transaction terms. MarginKoala does not assume CIF, FOB or another customs valuation basis; use the value confirmed for the shipment or by a customs professional.

Landed Cost

Should I include packaging?

Include packaging only when it belongs in the landed-cost or decision-cost basis you are modelling. Inbound or retail-ready packaging may be treated differently from outbound fulfilment packaging, so keep the classification consistent with the business records.

Landed Cost

What if I drop-ship instead of importing?

Use the same principle: include the supplier and per-order costs that actually apply to the drop-ship arrangement. Do not force import freight, duty or customs fields into the model when those costs are not borne by the business.
