Dear All, COGS Defination: Cost of goods sold, COGS, or "cost of sales", includes the direct costs attributable to the production of the goods sold by a company. This amount includes the materials cost used in creating the goods along with the direct labor costs used to produce the good. It excludes indirect expenses such as distribution costs and sales force costs. COGS appears on the income statement and can be deducted from revenue to calculate a company's gross margin. COGS is the costs that go into creating the products that a company sells; therefore, the only costs included in the measure are those that are directly tied to the production of the products. For example, the COGS for an automaker would include the material costs for the parts that go into making the car along with the labor costs used to put the car together. The cost of sending the cars to dealerships and the cost of the labor used to sell the car would be excluded. Thanks & Regards, Sarfaraz Shaikh.
COGS is expense account and all expenses has debit balance as default normal balance so COGS also has debit balance.
YES
Expense accounts should always be debit balances. The only exception is when you are recording discounts received on purchases in a separate account than the COGS account used for purchases. Discounts should be shown as a COGS account so that it is netted against purchases, and will have a credit balance. But even in this case, the total of all COGS accounts should be a debit balance.
Yes. COGS is the difference between Sales and Gross Margin. If your gross margin is 40%, then your COGS is 60% (100% - 40%). So, if your Sales are 1,000 and you have a 40% Gross Margin, your COGS = 600 (1,000 x 60%) or (1,000 - 400).
The Matching Principle is a fundamental accounting directive that mandates that revenue and its associated cost of goods sold must be recognized in the same accounting period. This enhancement will automate the matching of Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) for a sales order line to the revenue that is billed for that sales order line. The deferral of COGS applies to sales orders of both non-configurable and configurable items (Pick-To-Order and Assemble-To-Order). It applies to sales orders from the customer facing operating units in the case of drop shipments when the new accounting flow introduced in 11.5.10 is used. And finally, it also applies to RMAs that references a sales order whose COGS was deferred. Such RMAs will be accounted using the original sales order cost in such a way that it will maintain the latest known COGS recognition percentage. If RMAs are tied to a sales order, RMAs will be accounted for such that the distribution of credits between deferred COGS and actual COGS will maintain the existing proportion that Costing is aware of. If RMAs are not tied to a sales order, there isno deferred COGS.
