This depends on the control level of the attribute 'Inventory Asset Value'. If this is controlled at Master level, then whenever you change the master org of the inventory org, then the costing org will be defaulted to new master org.
If the attribute is controlled at Org level, then the costing org will not change & is defaulted to the child organization (i.e.) the Inventory organization itself.
Scenario:
For better understanding let’s consider the following scenario,
M1 - Master Organization
C1 - Inventory Organization
If attribute 'Inventory Asset Value' is set to Master level, then we observe that in the costing tab of org C1, we see master org M1. If we change the master org from M1 to say M2, then the costing org also changes to M2.
If attribute 'Inventory Asset value' is set at org level, then we observe that in the costing tab of org C1, we see costing org as C1. If we change the master org from M1 to say M2, the costing org does not change & is retained as C1.
Navigation:
Inventory > Setup > Items > Attribute Controls > Query for Inventory Asset Value
If the control is set at the Master Level, then it indicates that the child organization does not maintain inventory value and hence need not retain a cost. The cost should be maintained at the master organization and so the organization parameters automatically set the costing organization as the Item Master.
The parameter can be changed only in the following cases,
- No on-hand quantity should exist in the Organization.
- No transactions should have happened in the Organization.

Good pointer.
