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
