Answer:

$73,561

Explanation:

The computation of inventory increased is shown below:-

Inventory increase = (Received goods - Returned goods) × (1 - 0.01) + Freight  charges

= ($75,000 - $1,100) × 0.99 + $400

= $73,900 × 0.99 + $400

= $73,161 + $400

= $73,561

Therefore for computing the increased inventory we have simply applied the above formula.
