Read this first: the decision boundary

This pack is built for Kenyan importers, sourcing agents and wholesale traders evaluating a product or shipment before committing working capital.

Its practical outcome is: Know the shipment cost, unit landed cost, break-even selling price and downside margin using your own dated quote and current official inputs.

It is a recordkeeping and decision-support system. It does not replace a current official requirement, a signed contract, a lender's terms, or advice from a qualified professional. Prices, eligibility, rules and market access can change. Every material figure should be supported by a dated quotation, transaction record or authoritative source in the workbook's Sources tab.

The operating workflow

Capture the supplier quote, product unit and shipping terms
Confirm the product description and provisional HS code with a licensed clearing professional
Enter current freight, insurance, duty, tax, levy, clearance, storage and last-mile assumptions
Allocate shipment-level costs to a consistent saleable unit
Compare wholesale and retail price scenarios
Record the evidence-backed go, pilot or pause decision

Work in this order. A dashboard result without the underlying records is not evidence. If a step does not apply, mark it not applicable and explain why rather than deleting the control.
