Two months ago we sold x10 widgets that had a cost of $250 each. One month ago, we sold 2x of the same widget to a different client which had a higher cost of $350 each.
Now, the customer from two months ago returned the x10 widgets and we created a Credit Memo for the widgets and credited the customer. The issue is that the x10 widgets now in stock, have a cost of $350 each even though the actual cost for the widget on the first transaction was $250 each.
How do we amend this? Our inventory shows a value of $350 x10 ($3500) instead of what it should be. $250 x10 ($2500).
Hello there, @ryanavarisource.
I'd be delighted to share some information on how you can create separate item lists to record the different price packages offered to your customers. Let's get started!
By creating a separate item list for the widget amounting to $350 and another one amounting to $250, you'll be able to do inventory tracking under Cost of Good sold.
Here's how to create an item list:

Please Learn from this input.
if you really have the same Widget, the fact that it costs varying amounts is the point of Average Costing. You bought it Back from the other customer at the higher Price, so that is your Cost, now. That changes your Average on hand.
If you are describing different Items, not the Same Item, you need to track them as different inventory items. Inventory cannot ever be tracked as Generic Item by name.
There is nothing to adjust, based on what you described.

Using this logic, the item cost of what they bought is the item selling price of the c/memo, which is not stated, not the $350 cost of the previous sale
