Explanation / Answer

1) Calculation of Net Sales :-

= Sales - Sales Return and Allownces - Sales Discount

= $90400 - $6900 - $1065

= $82435

2) Calculation of Cost of Goods Purchase (Net Purchase) :-

= Purchase - Purchase Return and Allownces - Purchase Discount

= $42900 - $1850 - $840

= $40210

3) Calculation of Cost of Goods Sold :-

= Beginning Inventory + Net Purchase - Ending Inventory

= $1100 + $40210 - $12000

= $29310
