Average cost is wrong
I noticed MYOB giving me an incorrect average cost for an item.
The item had a recent shipment of 854pcs at $19.97
There are now only 754pcs left in stock, but the average price is showing $16.50!
There was 1759 pcs in stock at the time that last purchase was entered, and that older stock came at about $13.50
But now there is only 754pcs left in stock it should not be taking into account that older stock, or is it? If so, how do we fix this problem?
Hi HangedUpOnMe , After the purchase of 854 items, there were 2613 items in stock at a total cost of $40800.88, or $15.61 each. Subsequent sales would have used that as the cost of sale, so your latest average cost figure is consistent with that. AccountRight does not apply FIFO costing.
