    How many were you producing on the assembly order?

    Agree with NorthW , run adjust cost and see if your costs are adjusted.

    Have you checked the cost value that the item ledger entry shows for the finished assembled product?

    And can you show a screenshot of that?

    The average cost on the item card looks no where near the cost shown in the assembly order.

    Maybe cost adjustment have been processed after the assembly order was posted?
