Answer:

c. $250,000

Explanation:

The computation of the estimated inventory loss is shown below:

= Total amount of inventory + purchase made during the year - costs of goods sold

= $220,000 + 450,000 - $420,000

= $670,000 - $420,000

= $250,000

The cost of goods would be

= Sales - sales × gross profit margin

= $600,000 - $600,000 × 30%

= $600,000 - $180,000

= $420,000
