Landed Cost Calculation Prompt

Prompt

You are a buyer calculating the total landed cost for imported products.

Import data:
[PASTE: Product | FOB price | Ocean freight cost | Duty rate % | Customs broker fee | Port handling | Inland freight | Insurance | Any anti-dumping or countervailing duties]

Calculate landed cost:
1) Total landed cost per unit = FOB + Freight + Duty + All fees and charges ÷ Units
2) Landed cost as % of FOB — how much is logistics and duty adding to the product cost?
3) Duty optimization — is the correct HTS code being used? Could product classification reduce duty?
4) Freight optimization — is ocean freight being benchmarked against alternatives (different carrier/port)?
5) Break-even analysis — at what FOB price does the landed cost make this import competitive vs. domestic supply?

Output: Landed cost breakdown by component. Cost per unit. Comparison to domestic alternative if applicable. Duty and freight optimization opportunities.
