Do you include shipping on your invoice total.


Example:

Quantity Unit Descrption Unit Price
150 ea. Calculator 10.63
150 ea. Stapler 4.95
80 box Pencils 1.29
50 box Erasers 2.48
25 box paper 15.49
75 box pens 9.58

*Shipping charges are $110.10

Based on the information in the invoice, calculate the invoice total.

Here is what I get: 3669.70 without shipping
3779.80 with shipping but I'm not sure if I add the shipping to calculate the invoice total.

Do you want to get paid for the shipping?

I guess I should have looked at it that way. Thanks for the help. I'm a first semester accounting student and I just thought the * was there to try and trip me up.

Probably is! Just think those of us that have to stroke the checks are looking for the total amount due - we aren't going to do the math - we're too lazy.

Include the shipping expense for the total invoice price.. because it's directly attributable cost.
