NO ---- Income is a credit (cr) but the expense a debit (db) And you 
paid for this shipping somehow

If it helps you to remember, the fundamental type of both income and 
expense is equity and the sense of equity is credit. Income is an 
increase (more credit) and expense a decrease (opposite sense of credit 
is debit)
