First of all, the invoice has not arrived, but this business has occurred in the current month. According to the accrual system, it must be reflected in the current month, so it is valued first.
Borrow: Raw materials 50000
Loan: accounts payable 50000
When the invoice is received next month, with the correct price, the original valuation should be written off in red (in fact, it is registered with a negative number to offset the original valuation)
Borrow: Raw materials 50000
Loan: accounts payable 50000 (numbers are registered in red letters)

Ie: Borrow: Accounts payable: 50000
Loan: Raw materials: 50000
