What should be included in landed cost?
Landed cost normally includes supplier cost, inbound shipping, duty, and other
import overhead such as insurance, inspection, broker fees, or customs handling.
Why not price from supplier cost alone?
Pricing from supplier cost alone usually hides freight, duty, and import
overhead. Those layers quietly compress margin later, especially when ad spend or
marketplace fees sit on top.
What should I calculate after landed cost?
A useful next step is payout margin, break-even ROAS, or channel-level fee math,
because landed cost is only one part of the final contribution picture.
