The most basic equation for cost of goods sold is as follows:
COGS = PS * CPP
where
PS = products sold
CPP = cost per product to produce
(assuming cost per product to produce does not change with time)
For example, if it costs me $10 to make a widget and I sold 25, the COGS is $250.
Many companies dealing in widgets; however, carry inventories of those widgets. The following equation incorporates inventory:
COGS = (BI - EI + PP) * CPP
where
EI = ending inventory
BI = beginning inventory
PP = products produced
CPP = cost per product to produce
(assuming cost per product to produce does not change with time)
For example, if we started the year with 50 widgets, ended the year with 40 widgets, produced 90 widgets and it still costs $10 to make a widget, the COGS is as follows:
COGS = (50 - 40 + 90) * $10 = we sold 100 widgets * $10 = $1,000
