Generation

Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) represents the direct costs of producing goods that a company sells, including materials, labor, and manufacturing overhead. It is critical for determining gross profit and overall profitability, as it directly impacts pricing decisions and operational efficiency. COGS also serves as a key metric for investors and managers to evaluate production costs and compare performance against competitors.
