The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Uptown Athletic had an inventory of $400,000. During the year, the company purchased goods costing $1,500,000. If Uptown Athletic reported ending inventory of $500,000 and sales of $2,000,000.

Cost of goods sold = beginning inventory + purchase - ending inventory

COGS = 400,000 + 1,500,000 - 500,000 = 1,400,000

Sales = 2,000,000

COGS = 1,400,000

Gross profit = 600,000 30%
