    d $51,000

    Explanation:

    Ending inventory is the value of the inventory in the store at the end of the year.

    Goods are purchased and added to the the beginning inventory, the sale for the period is deducted from it. the residual value is the value of ending Inventory.

    In This question it is assumed that there is no beginning inventory of the goods. $90,000 of the purchases were made and at the end of the year there was $9,000 balance of inventory.

    We can calculate the deduction value as follw

    Ending Inventory = Beginning Inventory + Purchases - deduction

    $9000 = $0 + $60,000 - deduction

    $9000 = $60,000 - deduction

    Deduction = $60,000 - $9,000 = $51,000
