For anyone who cares, I've figured out why this is. When the item movement
history is saved, the value of the item is NOT saved. This means when a
report is created from this data, it uses current pricing, which may be
different from what it was when the item was actually sold. The Item Value
List doesn't use history, as it is always current, so this value is more
accurate, but only gives information for the current time.
