Well first you need to understand costing. Read an Inventory Costing white paper. Just google it. CustomerSource or ArcherPoint. What you need here is the part "inventory decreases" and "cost adjustment"

Then if you really have that theory now then you can understand it. This function checks if this item ledger entry, most often increase, has other entries, most often decreases applies to it that need to be adjusted.

What it does not really tell is WHY, but I can explain that from an accounting perspective if needed.
