Answer:

$1,810,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Cost of goods sold = $1,600,000

Inventory increases by  = $210,000

Ending balance in inventory = $455,000

Opening Balance of Inventory:

= Ending balance in inventory - Inventory account increased Compare to Beginning

= $455,000 - $210,000

= $245,000

Cost of Inventory purchased:

= Cost of Goods Sold + Ending Balance of Inventory - Opening Balance of Inventory

= $1,600,000 + $455,000 - $245,000

= $1,810,000
