Costs, Fees & TaxesAugust 29, 2026 2 min read

I bought new stock at a different price. How do I handle the two costs?

Escalafy uses one cost per product. The two ways to handle a supplier price change.

Escalafy uses a single cost per product, not two batches with different costs side by side. There are two ways to handle it, and both are valid.

Option 1: keep the old cost

Keep the previous cost until that stock is roughly sold out, and only then change it to the new one.

Option 2: enter an average

From the moment of the purchase, enter the average of both. For example, if you have 20 units at $7 and buy 20 at $5, you enter $6.

If you want your history to be more precise, you can reprocess 45 days with the old cost and then reprocess only the days after the change with the new cost.
