How to manage sales price and cost price of an item?

Hello,

Is there any way to manage sales price and actual cost price of an item?? My problem is if i update an item quantity it provides me the total sales value for an item in stock asset account. Where i need the total value of actual cost in that account.
For example, my manufacturing cost for item A is 20$ and i sell it for 40$. So, if i produce 20 unit of item A, total cost is 20x20=400$ which is my stock asset. But in ERPNext it shows 20x40=800$ in my stock asset which is a problem for me because sometime i need to give discount or reduce the price to my customers.

Is there any solution???

Set your stock price as $20 (or what you want to show in your books as asset value). Then make a different price-list for selling price.

Thanks a lot.
