Study Notes
Calculating Acquisition Costs (AK)
- AK is calculated for each item on the balance sheet
- Items on the balance sheet are grouped by similar characteristics for easier calculations.
- The initial balance and inflows are added, then outflows are subtracted.
- The results are displayed in a chart.
- The average cost (durchschnittwert) is calculated.
- The average cost is then multiplied by the number of items to get a total cost.
- Any discrepancies between the calculated AK and the balance sheet value must be explained.
Inventory Valuation (UV)
- UV is calculated in the same manner as AK.
- It's important to note that the initial balance and inflows are combined first and then outflows are subtracted.
- This result is presented in a table format.
- The average cost is used for calculations.
- The average cost is then multiplied by the number of items remaining to calculate the total cost.
- The calculated UV is compared with the value shown on the balance sheet, with any discrepancies noted and explained.
Differences between AK and UV
- The way AK and UV are calculated differs in that AK is applied for the entire period whereas UV is applied for a single point in time.
- Any period changes should be explicitly noted.
