Answer:

$350,000

Explanation:

Cost of goods sold = $720,000 / 1.20

Cost of goods sold = $600,000

Estimated cost of inventory = Inventory, March 1 + (Purchases - Purchases Return) -  Cost of goods sold

Estimated cost of inventory = $540,000 + ($420,000 - $10,000) - $600,000

Estimated cost of inventory = $540,000 + $410,000 - $600,000

Estimated cost of inventory = $350,000
