Landed cost management

One of the importers' greatest fears comes from how easy it is to make a mistake in any landed cost breakdown, with a potential impact on sales margins.
Sources of error are plenty, at every step of the landed cost calculation: freight rates wrongly budgeted, customs duty under-evaluated, wrong exchange rates used , or plain simple calculation mistakes when they're done using dodgy spreadsheets, or, even worse, manually.

AsiaCalculator addresses these issues via a state-of-the-art online service, created by importers, for importers.

1. Managers have more control on landed cost calculation

On AsiaCalculator.com, you can setup a company account with 2 access levels:
  • Supervisors : can access every calculation done within the company by any user, and get specific stats & reports at the company level of landed cost calculation activity
  • Users : access only their own calculations and stats

Typically, this would prove useful for teams where a purchasing manager oversees buyers specialized by product lines.

For smaller or individual companies, no worry - just use one supervisor account and you'll be just fine!

2. Buyers can rely on solid data and landed cost framework
