Find all the answers and computations below

Explanation:

In the year 2016, net purchases can be computed using the cost of sales formula below:

cost of sales=beginning inventory+purchases-ending inventory

purchases=cost of sales+ending inventory-beginning inventory

purchases=$83,500+$42,100-$38,900=$ 86,700.00  

Ending inventory in 2016=beginning inventory in 2017=$42,100

Ending inventory in 2017=beginning inventory+purchases-cost of sales

Ending inventory in 2017=$42,100+$72,100-$90,800=$ 23,400.00  

ending inventory in 2017=beginning inventory in 2018=$23,400.00  

cost of sales in 2018=beginning inventory+purchases-ending inventory

cost of sales in 2018=$23,400+$91,820 -$42,350 =$72,870
