Answer: $70,800

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of Goods sold are the costs of either producing or acquiring the goods the company plans to sell and Purchases form part of them.

Cost of Goods Sold = Opening Merchandise inventory + Purchases - Closing Merchandise inventory

61,200 = 12,400 + Purchases - 22,000

Purchases = 61,200 - 12,400 + 22,000

Purchases = $70,800
