Answer 1

Answer:

$ 227,500

Explanation:

given,                                          

total purchase in current year =  $ 250,000

Paid freight = $ 4,000                    

cost to deliver = $7,200                      

returned made = $ 24,000                          

Trift took advantage = $ 2,500                            

inventory = ?                                                          

inventory cost = purchases + freight inward - return stock - discount

                         = $ 250,000 + $ 4,000 - $ 24,000 - $ 2,500

                         = $ 227,500

the Trift's cost of inventory is equal to  $ 227,500
