Need help writing and equation to go into a wolfram/alpha widget to compute pour costs. can't seem to correctly format it to work. Equation is:

opening inventory (value) + purchases (value) - returns/credits (value) - closing inventory (value) = usage (value) Usage (value) / sales (value) = COGS%

I'd like to see this equation in a form that I can enter into the wolfram/alpha widget builder and build a pour cost calculator. I guess my math skills are a little rusty. Thanks in advance!

I honestly don't if you can do that on the free version of WolframAlpha. Why not just use Excel or (a free alternative like LibreOffice Calc)?
