    All answers above are enough to clear the concept but to go in technical terms, For Sales Expected cost is the cost when you do just shipment and Actual is when you complete the Invoicing.

    Hi, Expected cost is the cost that is posted when system yet does not know the real purchase price.

    Expected is before you get invoiced. Actual is after.

    So, for example, if I buy 100 footballs at £5 my expected total cost is £500. I then get the goods shipped to my warehouse and I only get 99. The vendor won’t send me the final one so I get an invoice for £495. Plus I might have freight, duties and insurance costs on top. So the actual cost could be higher or lower depending on the scenario
