Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Calculate total additional inventory cost
$150 + 270+110=$530$
Step2: Use cost - of - goods - sold formula
The formula for cost of goods sold (COGS) is COGS = Beginning Inventory + Purchases - Ending Inventory. Beginning inventory is $9700$, purchases (additional inventory) is $530$ and ending inventory is $1600$. $9700 + 530-1600$ $=10230 - 1600$ $=$8630$
Answer:
$8630$
