Why does GAAP require the distinction between product and period costs? |
The matching principle |
|
COGS = |
Cost of beginning inventory + COGP - Cost of ending inventory |
|
Direct Materials equation |
Beginning balance + DM purchased - DM used = End DM |
|
WIP equation |
Beginning balance of WIP + DL + DM + MOH - COGP = Ending balance of WIP |
|
Finished Goods equation |
Beginning balance of FG + COGM - COGS = End balance of FG |
|
Prime Costs |
DM + DL |
|
Conversion Costs |
DL + MOH |
|
