How to integrate landed costs in the cost of the product?
=========================================================
Overview
========
Landed costs include all charges associated to a good transfer.
Landed cost includes = Cost of product + Shipping + Customs + Risk
All of these components might not be applicable in every shipment, but
relevant components must be considered as a part of the landed cost. We
have to identify landed cost to decide sale price of product because it
will impact on company profits.
Configuration
