    b. $8,140

    Explanation:

    The computation is shown below:

    = Merchandise amount - return and allowances - discount + freight charges

    = $10,000 - $2,000 - $160 + $300

    = $8,140

    The discount = (Merchandise amount - return and allowances) * discount rate

    = ($10,000 - $2,000) * 2%

    = $160

    Simply we deduct the returned inventory and discount expense and added the freight charges to the merchandise amount
