Document Summary

Cost principle requires inventory to be recorded at the price paid of the consideration given: invoice price, freight-in, inspection costs, preparation costs, any purchase returns and allowances or purchase discounts taken are subtracted. Goods available for sale = beginning inventory + purchases. Cost of goods sold = goods available for sale - ending inventory. Beginning inventory + net purchases = ending inventory + cost of goods sold = goods. Perpetual inventory system - purchase transactions recorded directly in an inventory account: inventory updated after every transaction, sales require two entries: (1) retail sales and (2) cost of goods sold. Periodic inventory system - no up-to-date record of inventory is maintained during the year: inventory updated at end of accounting period, sales require one entry to record retail sale. Inventory costing methods - can use different methods for different types of inventory. First-in, first-out (fifo) - highest when prices are rising: ending inventory approximates current replacement cost.
