Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. Net purchase

= Purchase - Purchase Returns and Allowances - Purchase Discounts + Freight in

= $330,000 - $8,000 - $6,000 + $12,000

= $328,000

b. The cost of goods available for sale is

= Beginning inventory + purchase

= $50,000 + $328,000

= $378,000

c. The cost of goods sold is

= The cost of goods available for sale - ending inventory

= $378,000 - $80,000

= $298,000
