    Hi,

    The Physical cost is the cost price related to the value at time of receipt or issue the goods.

    The Financial cost is the cost known at time of invoicing the goods.

    The settlement is related to inventory closing.

    You can download a whitepaper where you can read more about the inventory costing:

    www.microsoft.com/.../details.aspx

    The document is based on AX2009, but is still valid for AX2012.
