Collect the cost inputs
- Quoted products and quantities
- Freight, insurance and packaging
- Payment or transfer fees
- Known duties, taxes and customs charges
- Inspection, accessories and any other agreed cost
Calculate on one consistent basis
Use the same currency and the same included quantities for each option. Divide the complete known order cost by the accepted number of units, while keeping pending costs separate from the calculated total.
Keep quality and remedy in the comparison
A cost comparison should record condition, inspection evidence and the remedy for non-conforming units. A lower amount with unclear acceptance terms may create a higher effective cost after delivery.
