COGS vs. Expense

Elementary, I'm sure - if I am a company that provides a service only, is there ever a reason for an expense to go under a COGS entry or is everything an expense?

It depends.  Some contractors or large service companies put the direct labor costs and job materials to COGS.

PLEASE mark this answer as solved (click the button under the answer in the lower, right corner) or post additional questions. Thanks so much!!!
