    The cost of inventory is $24,184

    Explanation:

    The computation of the inventory cost is shown below:

    = Purchase cost of merchandise - returned goods - discount + transportation

    = $24,700 - $1,100 - $236 + $820

    = $24,184

    The calculation of the discount is shown below:

    = (Purchase cost of merchandise - returned goods) * discount rate

    = ($24,700 - $1,100) * 1%

    = $236
