[Former Member]

Hello Gurus,

How to calculate the cost price of an Article in Retail, how does the system calculate it?

I did try looking for SAP note for help. However I couldnu2019t find one. Would appreciate your responses.

Thank you for your time in advance.

Hi

Generally speaking the cost price as such isn't calculated by the system. It is the cost price to you from your supplier

Hi,

Purchase price is calculated using the purchase price calculation schema.

The calculation schema has different conditions like Cost Price, Taxes, Freights, Discounts etc ..

Depending on which condition records are maintained and active purchase price is determined.

See IMG --> MM --> Purchasing --> Conditions --> Define Price Determination Process

Cheers

Hi Gareth,

If by cost you mean the moving average price the system deos the calculation as mentioned below

MAP = (Current stock value + Receipted stock value) / (Current stock quantity + Receipted stock quantity).

For e.g. if you had 5 quantities of material X with unit price as $10 your current stock value is $50.

now if you take a GR 10 quantities of the same material wih unit price $15 your receipted stock value will be $150.

The MAP in this case will be: (50150) / (510) which is $13.33.
