COMMENTS

  • It is recommended that parts sales be costed on an item-by-item basis at the time of sale, since this method produces the most accurate cost of sales data and provides the best control of inventory. If parts sales are costed on the basis of estimated percentages of retail selling prices in various inventory categories at month end, percentages used should be verified by test checks of actual item costs over a 30-60 day period every six months. Office Management contains additional information on costing methods.
  • Parts damaged in transit may be recorded in the Parts and Service Sales Journal.
