Study Notes

INCOTERMS 2020 Formulas

  • Ex-Works (EXW)

    • Formula: EXW = Cost of Goods
    • Under this term, the seller's responsibility is minimal, only ensuring the goods are available for pickup.
  • Free Carrier (FCA)

    • Formula: FCA = EXW + Origin O/C (Loading to Truck/Inland Freight, Trucking, Haulage, and more).
    • Includes costs like customs clearances and export documentation.
  • Free Alongside Ship (FAS)

    • Formula: FAS = EXW + Origin O/C + Freight (FRT) + Destination O/C.
    • The seller delivers the goods alongside the ship, transferring risk to the buyer at that point.
  • Free on Board (FOB)

    • Formula: FOB = EXW + Origin O/C + FRT + Destination O/C.
    • The seller covers costs and risks until the goods are loaded on the vessel at the port.
  • Cost and Freight (CFR)

    • Formula: CFR = FOB + FRT = EXW + Origin O/C + FRT.
    • The seller pays for transportation to the destination port but the risk transfers once loaded on the ship.
  • Cost, Insurance, and Freight (CIF)

    • Formula: CIF = FOB + FRT + Insurance (INS) = EXW + Origin O/C + FRT + INS.
    • Offers additional protection by requiring the seller to insure the goods during transport.
  • Delivered at Place (DAP)

    • Formula: DAP = FOB + FRT + Destination O/C.
    • Seller assumes responsibility for delivering goods to a specified location, ready for unloading.
  • Delivered at Place Unloaded (DPU)

    • Formula: DPU = FCA + FRT + Destination O/C.
    • Unique as it requires the seller to unload the goods at the destination.
  • Delivered Duty Paid (DDP)

    • Formula: DDP = FOB + FRT + Destination O/C.
    • The seller handles all risks and costs, including import duties and taxes, until goods reach the buyer.
  • Shared Elements in Terms

    • Many terms share common components like EXW, Origin O/C, and Destination O/C, indicative of various responsibilities and cost distributions between sellers and buyers.
  • Importance of Understanding Terms

    • Correct usage of INCOTERMS helps clarify responsibilities, manage risks, and calculate costs effectively in international trade operations.
