Landed cost and tariffs

Know your landed cost before you place the order

Every layer of duty, before you buy.

  • Enter each cost the way you actually pay it
  • FOB or CIF price, with a second currency alongside
  • A warning on any quotation line below your margin floor

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Build the cost sheet

    Pick the product and packing, then add each cost. Costs you used before are suggested as you type.

  2. Step 2

    Price it for the buyer's quantity

    Use the sheet in a quotation at the buyer's quantity and exchange rate. Expodite shows the new price beside the old one before anything is added.

  3. Step 3

    Watch the margin on the quotation

    Authorised staff see the cost and margin behind each line. Type a new rate and the margin appears at once, against your floor.

Live margin

The same product costs more to ship in a smaller lot

Expodite shows your margin live as you price, at the quantity the buyer asked for. Quote the 20 MT price on a 10 MT order and you could lose over $520.

  • Priced at the buyer's quantity
  • Old and new price side by side
  • Margin shown as you type
Every sum explained

A cost sheet anyone in the team can check

Each cost is explained in plain words, and a simple chart shows where the money goes. Your team can follow how a price was built without asking the person who built it.

  • Every cost explained in plain words
  • See where the money goes
  • Export sheets to a spreadsheet
Margin floor

A price below your floor is never a quiet mistake

Set a margin floor on each sheet. Anyone who quotes below it is warned, and if they go ahead, Expodite records it. You keep control without slowing a sale.

  • Warning on every line below the floor
  • Name, price and margin recorded
  • Your team can still close a deal that needs it
Costs stay private

Your buyer sees the price, never the cost

Costs never appear on anything your buyer receives. Only staff you choose see them. Later edits to a sheet do not change a quotation you have already given.

  • Costs kept off every buyer document
  • Costs seen only by staff you choose
  • Quoted costs kept on the line

Questions

Do I need a cost sheet for every quotation line?

No. A line can use a cost sheet or a price you type in. Lines from a cost sheet also show their margin.

Can I see the price in US dollars or euros?

Yes. The price can be shown in a second currency at the rate you choose, per MT and for the whole lot.

Will changing a cost sheet change quotations we have already given?

No. Changes to a sheet apply only to new quotations.

Can my sales team see our costs?

Only the people you choose. Costs never appear on anything your buyer receives.

What happens if someone quotes below our margin floor?

Expodite warns them. If they go ahead, it records who did it, the price and the margin, so you can review it later.
