If A local dealer purchases large quantities of propane and then delivers the propane in small quantities to its customers. The dealer will record the purchase as the asset Propane Inventory. As the propane is sold, the dealer will reduce Propane Inventory for the cost of the propane sold and will increase the expense as cost of goods sold.If A manufacturer uses propane in its factory operations. The cost of the propane purchased is likely to be recorded as manufacturing overhead.. Manufacturing Overhead is allocated to the products manufactured and will be part of the products' cost. If the products are in inventory, those products' costs are assets. If the products are sold, those products' costs will be expensed as Cost of Goods Sold.
