Respuesta :

Answer:

$75,485

Explanation:

The computation of the estimated inventory loss is shown below:

Goods lost = Cost of Goods available for sale - Cost of Goods Sold

where,

Cost of Goods available for sale = Inventory + Purchases

= $171,000 + 196,000

= $367,000

And,

Cost of Goods Sold is

= $481,000 ÷ 165%

= $291,515

So, the  estimated inventory loss  is

= $367,000 - $291,515

= $75,485
