إليك كيفية تقسيم التكاليف:
- تكلفة المنتج: Agreed price for the audio systems is $150,000.
- الخدمات اللوجستية المحلية: Costs for delivering goods from the factory to the port in China (seller’s responsibility), let’s say $3,000.

الشحن:
Under DDP, the seller has the obligation to arrange and pay for the carriage of the goods to the agreed destination, and also to clear the goods for import and pay any applicable local taxes or import duties. The risk transfers from the seller to the buyer only when the goods have been made available to the buyer, ready for unloading at the named place of destination.
Therefore, the total cost to the buyer is the DDP price ($180,000). There are no additional costs for the buyer under DDP, as all costs and risks up to the point of delivery at the destination are borne by the seller.
