Answer:

$30,220

Explanation:

Inventory purchased               $299,000

Discount (299,000*2%)                  ($5,980)

Freight Charges                           $18,500

Inventory returned                        ($7,800)

Net purchases                            $303,720

Cost of goods sold=opening inventory+purchases-ending inventory

$335,000=$61,500+$303,720-ending inventory

Ending inventory=61,500+303,720-335,000

Ending inventory=$30,220
