Answer:

correct option is D. $21,000

Explanation:

given data

sales commission = 15%

inventory at the year end = Cost of inventory sent to consignee - Cost of inventory sold by consignee ............................1

put here value and we will get

inventory at the year end = $85,000 - $64,000

inventory at the year end = $21,000
