$21,640

Explanation:

For computing the ending inventory for the year 2 we need to do the following calculations which are shown below:

Ending inventory for the year 2 = Beginning inventory + cost of goods purchased - cost of goods sold

where,

Beginning Inventory = $9,600

Cost of Goods Purchased = Purchase - Purchase Returns - Purchase Discounts + Freight on Goods   under shipping point

= $41,600 - $760 - $560 + $1,760

= $42,040

And, the cost of goods sold is $30,000

So, the ending inventory for the year 2 is

= $9,600 + $42,040 - $30,000

= $21,640
