Used-shoe landed-cost reconciliation
Landed cost per sellable pair is not the invoice total divided by the supplier's pair count. The denominator must be the received pairs that pass the buyer's release rules after mismatches, contamination holds, structural declines and unresolved claims are removed. The numerator must include the costs that actually bring those released pairs to the destination selling point. A useful ledger preserves currency, dates, allocation methods and open estimates so buyers can compare offers without hiding weak yield inside a low bale price.
State whether the calculation ends at port, warehouse, sorting floor or ready-to-list inventory. Record the working currency, exchange-rate source and date, tax treatment where appropriate, and which amounts are confirmed, quoted or estimated. Keep recoverable taxes separate when the buyer's accounting requires it.
Two offers cannot be compared if one stops at the vessel and another includes inland delivery and sorting. Preserve supplier invoices, freight and local service records under one shipment code, but do not invent charges or customs outcomes that have not been confirmed for the route.
port warehouse or ready stock
source and conversion date
confirmed quote or estimate
party responsible for charge
Enter goods value, packing charges, origin handling, inspection, freight, insurance where used, destination handling, brokerage, duties and taxes as applicable, inland delivery and bank or payment fees. Attach each amount to its supporting document and shipment milestone.
Watch for duplicated line items hidden across forwarder and broker statements. A generic contingency can remain visible as a scenario, but it should not be presented as an incurred cost. Document credits, claims and refunds separately so the original cost and later recovery can both be audited.

The ledger shows the numerator, denominator and reconciliation rule instead of hiding them in one percentage.
| Ledger block | Required input | Allocation or count rule | Control question |
|---|---|---|---|
| Goods and route | Supported shipment charges | Shipment code and currency date | Where does the cost boundary end? |
| Received pairs | Complete matched pair count | Actual count or stated sample | What differs from packing records? |
| Released yield | Sell, service, hold and decline | Only defined sellable routes | Are unresolved holds excluded? |
| Conversion | Labor, materials, service and storage | Direct time or documented driver | Is work counted once? |
| Reconciliation | Credits, actuals and disposition | Original scenario plus actual column | Which assumption changes next? |
Landed cost per sellable pair equals the auditable shipment and conversion total divided by the buyer's clearly defined released yield.
At receiving, record package count, seal or reference numbers where used, gross and net weights where available, and the actual count of complete matched pairs. Separate singles, size conflicts, category substitutions, package damage and unidentifiable items before calculating any saleable percentage.
The supplier's packing list remains an important comparison record, but it is not automatically the denominator. Preserve carton or bale positions for discrepancies. A complete pair can still fail later physical or evidence gates, so this stage closes only the received-pair count.
supplier record
actual complete pairs
single mismatch or damage
package position and evidence
Use the buyer's documented grade and release criteria to place received pairs into sellable now, service then sell, evidence hold, restricted value route and decline. For this calculation, define which routes count as sellable and when. Do not count an unresolved hold as ordinary inventory simply because it may recover later.
Record category, size and condition distribution because a shipment with many released pairs can still have poor commercial fit. The sellable denominator must be reproducible from pair or sample records and should show the uncertainty where a sampled method, rather than a full count, is used.
released without hidden work
approved work and recheck
excluded until closed
outside saleable denominator
Measure sorting, cleaning, repair, relacing, photography, labeling, storage and handling using the buyer's actual work method. Separate fixed shipment activity from pair-level work, then choose and document a reasonable allocation basis such as released pairs, weight, cartons or direct time.
Include service only after it is authorized and completed or clearly estimated in a scenario. Days held affect cash availability even when accounting treatment differs. Keep the operating view transparent rather than embedding every burden in an unexplained percentage.
shipment receiving and setup
minutes materials and service
space and days held
documented driver
Calculate at least a base case, a lower-yield case and a higher-preparation case. Change one assumption at a time: received variance, decline rate, service share, freight adjustment or currency movement. Show the resulting cost per released pair and the point at which the intended outlet no longer supports the order.
Scenarios are decision tools, not forecasts. Label every assumption and avoid presenting a favorable case as guaranteed. If a small yield change destroys the margin boundary, the importer needs a tighter sample, lower offer, different mix or smaller trial shipment.
current supported inputs
more holds or declines
higher service burden
renegotiate sample reduce or stop
After the shipment has moved through receiving, service and initial resale, update actual counts, credits, claim recoveries, preparation minutes, storage days and final dispositions. Keep the original approved scenario intact and add a reconciliation column rather than rewriting history.
Compare landed cost by category and condition cohort with completed sales, transfers, markdowns and returns. The result should change the next order's yield assumption, sample plan, service ceiling or allocation method. One shipment is useful evidence, but it is not a universal rate for every supplier or route.
approved before shipment
documented after receiving
credit claim or salvage
one next-order assumption
Because singles, mismatches, holds, declines and service routes can change the released denominator.
Keep them outside ordinary sellable yield until their release condition closes.
Use direct time where possible or a documented driver such as released pairs or weight.
No. Use confirmed route-specific records and qualified professional guidance where needed.
Keep the original scenario, actual column, evidence and the revised next-order assumption.
A useful landed-cost figure exposes its denominator and every allocation choice. The used mixed shoes wholesale category provides the mixed-footwear context; received-pair reconciliation, released yield, route charges, conversion work and actual outcomes govern this calculation.
