The Answer1

Cost of goods sold =First period stock + purchases + purchases expenses + sales expenses- Returns purchases - stocks last period (from the reality of the annual inventory)Therefore Valmkhozon (first period + another period) is considered part of the equation of cost of goods soldAnd of course the cost of goods sold only appear in the income statementBut what is shown in the balance sheet in the current assets side is (stocks last period)In another cost of goods sold expense is considered a special process to trade in goods

The most relevant connection between inventory and COGS is the way the two relate to establish a company's profitability. Revenue is the amount of money a company takes in as a result of selling its products. This number is important, but it does not reflect whether a company is making money or losing money. Profitability can only be determined once a business owner subtracts out the costs incurred in generating that revenue.
