Total inventory on hand is worth $53,860.77 at average cost, across four warehouses in the DEMO Fishbowl database:
| Warehouse | Parts stocked | Qty on hand | Value | Share |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LA | 50 | 82,238.06 | $22,420.13 | 41.6% |
| MI | 50 | 57,294.25 | $18,292.63 | 34.0% |
| Main | 30 | 25,889.44 | $10,507.63 | 19.5% |
| SLC | 6 | 3,461.00 | $2,640.38 | 4.9% |
| Total | $53,860.77 |
- Method: each warehouse's on-hand quantity is multiplied by the part's company-wide average cost; the company's costing method is Average Costing. Every stocked part has a cost.
- Cross-check: the four warehouses sum exactly to Fishbowl's own company-wide part cost total.
- Discrepancy: open cost layers total $59,120.36, about $5,260 more than the average-cost figure. I haven't traced which parts account for the gap.
- Scope: on-hand includes everything physically in each warehouse, including stock in receiving or other locations not counted as available. Quantities mix units of measure, so that column is only a rough size indicator.

What else your team could ask
“Why is our cost for chocolate chips different from what we paid on the last purchase order?”
Fishbowl is set to Average Costing, so the cost is a weighted average of everything received, not the last price paid.
