The cost of goods sold (COGS) is not considered an asset or a liability; instead, it is an expense that reflects the direct costs attributable to the production of goods sold by a company. When goods are sold, their associated costs are recorded on the income statement, reducing the company's profit for that period. In contrast, inventory, which is the unsold goods, is classified as a current asset on the balance sheet until sold.
It's not really either. Cost if goods sold is an expense on the profit and loss.
Cost of goods sold is the total cost incurred for goods manufacturing while cost of goods sold statement is the document which shows the calculation of cost of goods sold.

Freight-in is not considered an asset; rather, it is an expense that relates to the cost of transporting goods purchased by a company. This cost is typically included in the cost of inventory on the balance sheet until the inventory is sold. Once the inventory is sold, the freight-in cost contributes to the cost of goods sold (COGS) on the income statement. Therefore, while it affects the value of inventory, freight-in itself is classified as an expense in accounting terms.
