Abnormal spolage is part of overhead expenses, as it is viewed as a cost of running the operation, rather than a direct cost.

Note that normal spoilage (uncontrolable) is part of COGS

Expense accounts should always be debit balances. The only exception is when you are recording discounts received on purchases in a separate account than the COGS account used for purchases.

Is freight-in an asset?

Freight-in is not considered an asset; rather, it is an expense that relates to the cost of transporting goods purchased by a company. This cost is typically included in the cost of inventory on the balance sheet until the inventory is sold. Once the inventory is sold, the freight-in cost contributes to the cost of goods sold (COGS) on the income statement. Therefore, while it affects the value of inventory, freight-in itself is classified as an expense in accounting terms.
