Hello,

I am unable to understand the FIFO valuation of the stock in my inventory    

I used Stock Entry to receive 2 product batches on 1-1-2014 @ 08.00 AM

Batch 001 – 324 bottles @ $5.36 (valuation rate $5.36)

Batch 002 – 625 bottles @ $6.15 (valuation rate $5.88)

The valuation rate mentioned in the bracket comes from the Stock Ledger. My product is set at FIFO Inventory valuation.

I am wondering, why my second inventory batch is valued at $5.88 rather than $6.15? Am I missing something here?

Thanks in advance

Valuation rate at Stock Ledger report shows average valuation rate for all available stock. It does not show for that batch. Calculation is like: ((324*5.34)+(625*6.15)) / (324 + 625). But in the backend it maintains a [[qty1, rate1], [qty2, rate2]] queue for fifo valuation.

That makes lots of sense.  I really like that.
