Answer :

Estimated inventory loss = $233,750

Explanation :

As per the data given in the question,

Inventory = $231,000

Purchases = $461,000

Cost of goods for sale (A) is

= $231,000 + $461,000

= $692,000

Sales = $611,000

Gross Profit = $611,000 × 25% = $152,750

Cost of goods Sold (B) is

= ($611,000 - $152,750)

= $458,250

So, Estimated inventory loss  is

= (A - B)

= ($692,000 - $258250)

= $233,750
