1.2 Entry Cost Type Information

• Cost Type (唯一) : A cost type is a set of costs uniquely identified by name. Two cost types are predefined for you, Frozen (for standard costs) and Average. You can define and update an unlimited number of additional simulation or unimplemented cost types. Each cost type has its own set of cost controls

Cost Types for Average Costing

In an manufacturing average costing organization, two costs types are required for inventory valuation and transaction costing: the Average cost type and a user-defined Average Rates cost type. These two cost types are defined as follows:

Average
This cost type holds the current average unit cost of items on hand, and is used to value transactions such as issues and transfers out (see transaction table below for details). Users can update costs in this cost type only by using the average cost update routine. A history is kept of all such update transactions. This cost type is seeded and does not have to be defined by the user.

Average Rates cost type
This cost type holds any user-defined cost type used to resource to overhead associations and current overhead rates, and any other user-defined subelement rates to be used in cost rollups and to cost applicable transactions.
