The correct answer is

debited to the trading account

The correct answer is option 4. The freight and insurance costs incurred for acquiring goods or making them saleable are typically debited to the trading account, as these are direct expenses related to the goods for sale. The other options are incorrect because these costs are not related to the profit and loss account but to the trading account.
