    Answer:B. $215,000

    Explanation:

    The cost price of goods on consignment with Rogers will be added to Railway stock for stock are stated at cost price and goods on consignment still forms part of suppliers stock that's Railway until they are sold.

    However the goods purchased fob will not be included in Railway stock until it's received because it remains the property of the seller until it's received by the buyer.
