In 2026, cost in 1C is calculated after all costs relating to the period have been recorded and the closing operations provided for by the configuration have been completed; the composition of costs and the method of their valuation and allocation are determined by the organization's accounting policy and the infobase settings. Special transitional provisions of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan preserve the previously established taxation terms for certain investment projects and agreements concluded before 1 January 2026 (Articles 837, 838 and 839 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan).

How Cost Is Determined in 1C

There is no universal button that is the same in all 1C programs. The mechanism depends on what the organization accounts for: goods for resale, its own products or services. The result is also affected by the selected inventory valuation method, the composition of direct and indirect costs, departments, cost items, product groups and the procedure for closing the period.

For a correct calculation, all primary transactions for the period must first be recorded. The accountant usually checks:

- receipt of goods, raw materials, materials and services;

- additional costs related to acquisition;

- transfer of materials to production;

- production output or provision of services;

- returns, write-offs and inventory transfers;

- accrual of salaries and other expenses included in the calculation in accordance with the accounting policy;

- work-in-progress data;

- allocation of production overheads and other indirect costs.

After that, the scheduled operations provided for by the configuration are performed. If documents were entered retroactively or changed after the calculation, the period should be closed again in the correct chronological sequence.

It is important to distinguish between the preliminary cost and the final actual cost. During the month, the program may use a planned, estimated or not yet adjusted amount. The final result usually becomes available after all costs have been entered and the period-end closing procedures have been completed.

Cost of Goods, Products and Services

The cost of goods in 1C begins with the acquisition cost. Depending on the accounting policy and settings, it may include costs directly related to purchasing and preparing inventory for use or sale. If additional costs are recorded without the required analytics or are not allocated among goods, the final cost may be incomplete.

When checking inventory accounting, it is useful to reconcile receipts, returns, transfers between warehouses and sales. Negative balances or the sale of goods before their receipt is recorded may disrupt the calculation sequence. The primary document, transaction date, warehouse, item or other incorrect analytics should be corrected rather than manually adjusting the final amount.

The cost of products in 1C depends on materials, work, labor costs and other production costs included by the organization in the calculation. Consistent analytics are particularly important for production output: the department, cost item, product or business area must be specified so that the program can link the costs to the production result.

If some costs relate to work in progress, they should be separated from the costs of finished products. The accountant needs to check what portion of the work has been completed, what remains in production and under which rule adopted by the organization the amounts are allocated between finished products and the remaining balance.

The cost of a service in 1C requires an economically justified cost allocation base. This may be an indicator established in the organization's accounting policy and implemented in the specific infobase. The selected method must correspond to the nature of the service and be applied consistently.

Cost Calculation and Verification in 1C 8.3

Cost calculation in 1C 8.3 is a breakdown of the total cost into its components. It is important for the accountant to see not only the amount but also the data from which it was derived: materials, services provided by third-party organizations, labor costs, production costs and allocated expenses.

It is convenient to perform the check from the overall result down to the source data:

- Reconcile the quantity of produced or sold items with the movement documents.

- Break down the total amount by cost items and departments.

- Check whether any expenses remain without the required analytics.

- Reconcile written-off materials with the documents for their transfer to production.

- Check the balances of goods, materials, finished products and work in progress.

- Ensure that the documents have been posted in the correct sequence.

- Repeat the closing process after making corrections and compare the result.

Where to view cost in 1C depends on the solution: an accounting, production, trade or retail configuration. The required tool may be found among inventory, sales, production or cost reports, or among the calculation statements for period-end closing. Before starting, the full configuration name and release should be identified, as the location of commands and the set of reports may differ between versions.

The cost report in 1C 8.3 should be checked in terms of quantity, amount and calculation analytics. If the standard report is insufficient, the settings and the quality of the source data should be assessed first. Modifying the report form itself will not correct erroneous documents or incorrectly selected allocation rules.

What to Do If Cost Was Not Calculated

First, determine the scope of the problem: whether the cost is missing only for one item, for a particular warehouse or for all transactions during the period. Then check whether receipts or production output have been recorded, the document dates, balances, cost analytics and completion of scheduled operations.

It is not advisable to immediately adjust accounting entries manually. Such an entry may conceal the cause of the discrepancy without correcting the related accounting data or the calculation for the next period. It is more reliable to create a backup copy of the infobase, reproduce the error, correct the source data and perform the calculation again.

If the cause is related to settings, data exchange between infobases or a modified configuration, a technical analysis is required. The scope of work depends on the condition of the infobase and the nature of the error; before providing the infobase to a specialist, a backup copy should be made and it should be agreed which periods and transactions may be changed.
