Manufacturer it's cost of goods sold. Service provider it's cost of sales.
Manufacturers use cost of goods sold. Because service-only businesses cannot directly tie operating expenses to something tangible, they cannot list any cost of goods sold on their income statements. Instead, service-only companies list cost of sales or cost of revenue. Examples of these types of businesses include attorneys, business consultants and doctors.
