Answer:

$174,240

Explanation:

Beginning inventory = $162,700

Purchases = $458,700

Sales revenue = $638,800

Cost of goods sold = sales × ( 1 - Gross profit )

= sales × ( 1 - Gross profit )

= $638,800 × ( 1 - 0.30 )

= $638,800 × 0.70

= $447,160

Now,

Estimated ending inventory destroyed in fire

= Beginning inventory + purchases - Cost of goods sold

= $162,700 + $458,700 - $447,160

= $174,240
