Inventory Report - Cost of Items

SUGGESTED

Hi,

I'm trying to do a report to find the average cost that we paid for each inventory item. I'm just not exactly sure which report to use.

I've done a Price list report and have used the Raw Cost column - is this the average that we have paid for this part? I'm having a hard time figuring that out.

Thanks for any help!

    You probably only have a Raw Cost column because you have a price list called Raw Cost. Please remember Sage 50 uses the term Price to indicate what your customers pay and Cost for what you pay. So the Price List report is customer-centric, and has nothing to do with your costs.

    The Inventory Summary report shows the average costs even if you are on FIFO. You can also calculate it on each item ledger from the Quantities tab using Value/Quantity. Of course if you are using FIFO, you can find the Average Cost on the FIFO Costing report (only two decimal places).
