Yes purchase returns are deducted from purchases to calculate the net amount of purchases and that's why included in cost of sales.
To calculate the net delivered cost of purchase, one would add purchases and freight in and then deduct purchase returns & allowances and then deduct purchase discounts.
Purchases returns and allowances reduce the total purchases made by subtracting the value of returned goods or allowances granted for damaged items. Similarly, purchase discounts decrease the overall cost of purchases when suppliers offer price reductions for early payment or bulk buying. Together, these factors directly lower the gross purchases figure, resulting in a lower net purchases amount, which is calculated as gross purchases minus returns, allowances, and discounts. This ultimately affects the cost of goods sold and the overall profitability of a business.
Beginning inventory plus net cost of purchases equals the total goods available for sale during a specific period. This figure is crucial for determining the cost of goods sold (COGS) when combined with ending inventory. It helps businesses assess their inventory management and financial performance.
Net purchases are not the same as purchases. Purchases refer to the total amount of goods or services acquired by a company during a specific period, while net purchases take into account any returns, discounts, or allowances that may have been deducted from the total purchases. In other words, net purchases represent the final amount paid for goods or services after adjusting for any deductions.

Cost-to-Retail % = COGAS @ cost / COGAS @ retail Note: For the Conventional Retail Method the COGAS numbers come before you subtract the net markdowns (but they do include additions for net purchases and markups). For the Average Cost Retail Method, you would subtract the net markdowns before you enter the COGAS numbers. Hope this helps!
