The estimated cost of lost inventory = $4552.1

Explanation:

The cost of lost inventory = inventory,begining+purchases of the period-((1-avg gross profit ratio)(sales for the period-returns for the period))

The cost of lost inventory=$29900+$18900-((1-0.21)($56900-$890))

                                         =$48800-((0.79)(56010))

                                         =$48800-(44247.9)

                                         =$4552.1    

The estimated cost of lost inventory is $4552.1
