Answer:

Estimated ending inventory at retail                 $429000

Estimated cost of goods sold                           $699,700

Explanation:

                                                      Cost                Retail

Beginning inventory                $340,000          $384,000

Plus: Net Purchases                $777,000           $1,040,000

Net Markups                                                       $15,000

Less : Net Markdowns                                       ($5,000)

Goods available for sale        

excluding business inventory $777,000          $1,050,000

Cost to retail percentage $777,000 / $1,050,000 = 74%

Goods available for sale         $1,117,000          $1,434,000

Less : Net Sales                                                 ($1,005,000)

Estimated ending inventory at retail                 $429000

Beginning inventory              $340,000           $384,000

Current periods layer            $45000 * 74% = $33,300

Total                                       $385,000            $417,300

Estimated cost of goods sold = $1,117,000 - $417,300

= $699,700
