The Mellow Product Costs API provides a read-only view of the four cost columns used by the product-profit report:

- Purchase cost
- Inbound freight
- Shipping to customer
- Warehouse fees

Use it when you need the same product-level cost values in an external system without reproducing Mellow's calculation logic.
