Answer:

b. $640,000

Explanation:

The computation of the ending inventory using the periodic inventory system is as follows:

But before that the ending inventory units is

= Beginning inventory units + purchased units - sold units

= 400 + 800 + 1,200 + 800 - 3,000

= 200 units

Now the ending inventory is

= 200 units × $3,200

= $640,000

hence, the ending inventory using the periodic inventory system is $640,000

Therefore the correct option is B
