Answer:

C) $8,000

Explanation:

The budgeted cost of goods sold should include all the estimated or budgeted expenses that the sporting goods company incurs when purchasing their merchandise. In this case, it must include the cost of the beginning inventory + monthly purchases - cost of ending inventory = $3,000 + $7,000 - $2,000 = $8,000. The COGS also shows their expected sales.
