    Explanation:

    Ending inventory at retail:

    $670,000 [$650,000 (beginning inventory) + $1,835,000 (net purchases) + $75,000 (net markups) - $45,000 (net markdowns) - $1,845,000 (net sales) ]

    Cost ratio: 70% [$390,000 (beginning inventory) + $1,402,000 (net purchases) ] / [$650,000 (beginning inventory) + $1,835,000 (net purchases) + $75,000 (net markups) ].
