The inventory cost per unit is the sum of the acquisition and non-acquisition costs. Non-acquisition costs may be defined for the part to reflect add-on charges, such as freight and material handling. Multiple types of non-acquisition costs may be defined for each part resulting in multiple expense entries for the receiving warehouse. Transfer price variance in the receiving warehouse is calculated against acquisition costs only.
