Cartage/freight inward is the same as transportation-in and is part of purchases. If you're using the perpetual inventory method, it's part of merchandise inventory. Consequently, it will eventually become part of COGS. Cartage/freight outward is the same as transportation-out or delivery expense and is a selling or distribution expense. It's among the operating expenses which come after the gross profit line.
