General Ledger Effect

This cost change creates Inventory Asset and Cost of Goods Sold adjustment postings for each invoice on the original invoice date.
The original Inventory Asset account and the associated Cost of Goods Sold postings (highlighted red) are reversed.  The new cost is then reflected with two correcting postings (highlighted blue) to the Inventory Asset and Cost of Goods Sold accounts.
