6. For company ABC, there are multiple business residences maintained for which a valid inventory cost entry is maintained. 

If there are multiple valid inventory values maintained in different business residences for one company, the system will show an average of these cost entries in the Costs line in your Sales Order.

Inventory costs in Business residences are considered in the determination of costs in your sales Order.Even if there is an inventory cost maintained at Material master ,if there is a change in cost just before the sales order is created ,You have to navigate to Inventory cost History in order to find the cost.

We have to also ensure that the cost unit is taken into consideration across Business Residences for the calculation of cost.
