The merchandise available for sale cost a company $90,000 and was marked to sell at a retail price of $125,000. Sales during the period totaled $80,000. If the retail method is used, the estimated cost of the ending inventory is $32,400. $12,600. $22,400. $45,000.
32400
Explanation:
90000/125000 = 70%
70% x 80000 = 57600
90000 - 57600 = 32400.
