Carriage inward refers to the transportation costs incurred by a business when purchasing goods from suppliers. It is added to the cost of inventory and increases the cost of goods sold. Freight inward, on the other hand, refers to the cost of transporting the goods purchased from suppliers to the buyer's location. It is also added to the cost of inventory but is not included in the cost of goods sold.
