Cost of goods available for sale is the maximum amount of goods, or inventory, that a company can possibly sell during this fiscal year. It has the formula: Beginning Inventory (at the start of this year)+ purchases (within this year)+ Production (within this year)= cost of goods available for sale Notice that purchases and production might not be the same throughout the year, since purchase cost and production cost might vary during the year. But at the end, the total cost of purchases and production are added to beginning inventory cost to give cost of goods available for sale. Alternatively the costs of goods available for sales can be computed from the costs of sales: Costs of goods available for sale - Ending Inventory - Inventory write-downs = Costs of Sales ==References== 〔 1.
