Formula and method

Landed unit cost = (goods + freight/insurance + entered duty/tax + other acquisition costs) / saleable units.

Assumptions and limitations

Worked example

With total goods cost = 10000, freight and insurance = 1000, entered duty and nonrecoverable tax = 500, other acquisition charges = 500, saleable units received = 1000, landed cost per saleable unit is approximately 12.
