Shipping records...

Dominic: Then, there's a discrepancy between the purchasing (records?) and shipping records.
Lex: Stop. I know my father authorized this investigation, but enough
bean-counting (calculating?) for one day. He pulls out a whiskey or sth like that:

Thirty-year-old, single-malt. Also bought with my father's money. Make sure you jot that down.
What do the underlined parts mean?

troops' equipment.You know, having a gang of
superheroes is great in theory, but no one ever considers

Pretty much what it says. The amount of money the shipper (trucking company, etc) charges to carry the equipment from one place to another.
