How This Works

Cost of Goods Sold tracks the direct cost of inventory actually sold during a period โ€” starting inventory plus what was purchased, minus what's left unsold.

Formula

COGS = Beginning Inventory + Purchases − Ending Inventory

Example

$50,000 beginning inventory plus $200,000 purchases minus $40,000 ending inventory gives a COGS of $210,000.
