(how do we find cog available for sale) (how do we find the two distinctions of cog available for sale)
beginning inventory+ cogs purchased= cogs available for sale
cost of goods that are still available for sale= this will be recorded in two ways:
A) COGS (stamement of income since this is an expense)
B) Ending Inventory (SOFP as this is a current asset)
How do we separate the cost of goods available for sale?
Into 2 categories:
a) SOI: COGS EXPENSE
b) SOFP: ENDING INVENTORY
A) IS FOR ALL THE GOODS SOLD
B) FOR ALL THE GOODS NOT SOLD
