4.3. Costs incurred during the sales process:
4.3.1. Cost of goods sold:
4.3.1.1. Contents of cost of goods sold:
Currently, the company calculates the cost of goods sold in the warehouse by calculating the average unit price after each import. With this method of determining the cost of goods sold, accountants still ensure the correct assessment of sales results in each period. However, due to the characteristics of the commercial business, operations are not always stable because they are affected by many different factors. Therefore, determining the cost of goods sold affects the accuracy of business results. The disadvantage of this method is that it takes a lot of effort and is calculated many times.
Average unit price after each import = Actual inventory price after each import / Actual inventory quantity after each import
4.3.1.2. Documents and records used:
Documents: warehouse delivery note, goods records, warehouse receipt, sales invoice.
