Cost of goods sold.<\/p>\n<p>Purchases + opening stock &#8211; closing stock = cost of goods sold.<\/p>\n<p>Cost of goods sold is the total cost of the goods that a company has sold during a period. It is calculated by adding the cost of goods purchased to the beginning inventory and then subtracting the ending inventory.<\/p>\n<p>The cost of goods purchased is the cost of the goods that a company has purchased during a period. It is calculated by multiplying the number of units purchased by the unit cost.<\/p>\n<p>The beginning inventory is the value of the goods that a company has on hand at the beginning of a period.
