Formula & Mathematical Methodology: Import Landed Cost per Unit Formula

TotalLanded = FOBTotal + (FOBTotal × Duty%) + InternationalFreight + Insurance + PortBrokerDrayage
UnitLandedCost = TotalLanded / TotalUnits
TotalLanded = FOB_Total + (FOB_Total × Duty%) + InternationalFreight + Insurance + PortBrokerDrayage; UnitLandedCost = TotalLanded / TotalUnits

Rounding: Internal floating-point calculations preserve full precision; currency and percentage outputs round to 2 decimal places.

Worked Example: Import Landed Cost per Unit Worked Example

Allocate international freight, customs tariffs, and port fees across imported SKU units.

  1. Enter your operational, financial, or physical measurement inputs.
  2. Apply the standard domain equation: TotalLanded = FOB_Total + (FOB_Total × Duty%) + InternationalFreight + Insurance + PortBrokerDrayage; UnitLandedCost = TotalLanded / TotalUnits.
  3. Review the primary result, sensitivity metrics, and 3 interactive SVG graphs.
Result: Calculates Import Landed Cost per Unit via TotalLanded = FOB_Total + (FOB_Total × Duty%) + InternationalFreight + Insurance + PortBrokerDrayage; UnitLandedCost = TotalLanded / TotalUnits.
