Answer:

$97,020

Explanation:

Given:

Purchase = $100,000

Purchase allowance = $1,000

Computation:

Net Purchase = Purchase - Purchase allowance

= $100,000 - $1,000 = $99,000

Deductible amount = 2% of net purchase

= $99,000 x 2%

= $1,980

Net Purchase after deducting Discount amount of 2%

= $99,000 - $1,980

= $97,020

Therefore , Net Inventory Account balance is $97,020.
