We have included cost assumptions for Product Cost Per Unit $, Freight Cost Per Unit and also the Amazon FBA Fees Per Unit including a link to Amazon's own FBA Fee calculator where you can either get a rival product ASIN to estimate what costs would look like for your product based on something similar, or use current Amazon FBA fees incurred by looking at Seller Central and inputting this into the model.


Operating Expenses Assumptions
