Answer:

$873,200

Explanation:

The computation of the cost of merchandise sold is shown below:

= Merchandise inventory, July 1  + Purchases - Purchases returns and allowances - Purchases discounts - Freight in - Merchandise inventory, July 31

= $49,300 + $985,500 - $33,500 - $19,700 - $13,800 - $94,600
