Answer:

$8,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the store earned $x in December.

Therefore,

Money spent to buy new inventory $=\frac{1}{4} x$

Remaining money $= x - \frac{1}{4} x =\frac{3}{4} x$

Money used to pay bills $=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{3}{4} x=\frac{3}{8} x$

Money still left over = $3,000

Total money earned in December $= \frac{1}{4} x+ \frac{3}{8} x+3,000$

$\therefore x= \frac{1}{4} x+ \frac{3}{8} x+3,000$

$\therefore x= \frac{2}{8} x+ \frac{3}{8} x+3,000$

$\therefore x= \frac{5}{8} x+ 3,000$

$\therefore x- \frac{5}{8} x=3,000$

$\therefore \frac{8x-5x}{8} =3,000$

$\therefore \frac{3x}{8} =3,000$

$\therefore x =3,000\times \frac {8}{3}$

$\therefore x =1,000\times 8$

$\therefore x =\$8,000$

Thus, total money earned in December is $8,000.
