On my Detailed Sales reports, when showing the columns: Qty Sold, Sold Price,
Total Sales, Cost and Profit; the Cost & Profit columns do not calculate
properly.

It appears that the Cost and Profit columns are not Extended by Qty Sold,
resulting in inaccuracies wherever Qty Sold <>1. This applies to both
returns (negative Qty Sold) and sales where Qty Sold is 2 or more.

Total Sales does calculate properly (Qty Sold * Sold Price).

The end result is a report that has practically no value other than showing
Total Sales.

Yes, the Department Cost/Sales report does provide an accurate picture of
similar data, but with no detail--cannot be sorted by Supplier, for example,
and doesn't show line item detail like the Detailed Sales Report does.
