1.2.3 Accounting for cost of goods sold

Cost of goods sold is used to reflect the capital value of products, goods, services; investment real estate, production costs of construction and installation enterprises sold during the period. Cost of goods sold is only used when goods are sold out of warehouse; services are provided and consumed. When goods or services have been consumed and revenue is allowed to be determined, the cost of goods sold is also determined accordingly. Therefore, determining


Correct cost of capital is important for businesses to determine correct business results.

Documents used:

- Warehouse delivery note

- Warehouse delivery and internal transport note

- Direct sales invoice

- List of retail goods and services

- Other relevant documents

- Particularly for construction or transportation businesses, cost of goods sold is often determined through cost norms or cost lists and summary tables starting from the time of signing the contract until issuing invoices to partners.

Accounting principles:

- Only account for cost of goods sold and services when completed products, goods and services are determined to have been sold during the period.

- Expenses incurred such as inventory loss and damage after deducting compensation due to personal liability; costs of self-construction and self-manufacturing fixed assets exceeding normal norms that are not included in the original price of completed tangible fixed assets are directly accounted for in the cost of goods sold.

Method of determining cost of goods sold:

- Weighted average method:

Cost of goods sold is the value of each type of inventory calculated based on the average value of each type of similar inventory at the beginning of the period and the value of each type of inventory purchased or produced during the period. The average value can be calculated by period or each time a shipment is received, depending on the business situation.

+ Weighted average unit price for the whole period:



Average unit price of goods A in the period


=

Value of goods A in stock at the beginning of the period + Value

Goods A imported during the period

Quantity of goods A in stock at the beginning of the period + Quantity

Goods A imported during the period

Advantages: Simple, easy to do, only need to calculate once at the end of the period.

Disadvantages: Low accuracy, accounting work is concentrated at the end of the month, affecting other operations. In addition, this method does not provide timely information to accountants when transactions arise.


+ Average unit price after each import (weighted average):



Average unit price after import i of goods A


=

Actual inventory price after import i of

row A

Actual inventory after import i

of row A

Advantages: Overcomes the limitations of the above method.

Disadvantages: Calculation is multiple, complicated, and laborious. This method is applied to businesses with few product types and low import and export volume.

- First in first out (FIFO) method:

This method is applied based on the assumption that the goods purchased or produced first are sold first and the value of the goods issued is calculated according to the price of the first imported or produced batch and carried out sequentially until they are all sold.

Advantages: This method helps us to immediately calculate the cost of goods sold each time, ensuring timely data provision for accounting to record the next steps as well as for management. The cost of inventory will be relatively close to the market price of that item. Therefore, the inventory index on the accounting report has great practical significance.

Disadvantages: However, this method has the disadvantage of making current revenue inconsistent with current costs. According to this method, current revenue is generated by the value of products, goods, and materials that have existed for a long time. At the same time, if the number of types of goods is large, continuous imports and exports will lead to a significant increase in accounting costs and workload.

- Specific practical method:

According to this method, the product, material, goods exported from a batch are calculated based on the unit price of the batch. This is the best method because it complies with accounting principles: actual costs are consistent with actual revenue, and inventory value is accurately reflected at its value.

However, this method requires strict conditions, only businesses with few types of items, high-value inventories, and stable items can apply this method. Businesses with many types of items cannot apply it.


- Retail price method:

This method is used in the retail industry to value inventories of large quantities of rapidly changing items with similar profit margins that cannot be measured using other costing methods, such as supermarket businesses.

The cost of inventory is determined by taking the selling price of the inventory and subtracting a reasonable percentage profit margin. The percentage used takes into account items marked down below their original selling price. Typically each retail department will use its own average percentage.

The cost of goods purchased during the period is calculated for goods consumed during the period and goods in inventory at the end of the period. The selection of criteria for allocating the cost of goods purchased depends on the specific situation of each enterprise but must be implemented according to the principle of consistency.

The retail price method is applied to some specific units (for example, supermarket or similar business units).
