Answer: Inventories and cost of goods sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard costing is used in accounting and it simply has to do with the substitution of the cost that's expected for a product with an actual cost when preparing financial statements.

The difference that's then between the actual costs and expected costs are then recorded as variance. It should also be noted that when a company prepares financial statements using standard costing, the items that are reported at standard cost will be Inventories and the cost of goods sold.
