 Given
  Sales - 200,000
  Goods available for sale - 261,000 (cost) & 450,000 (retail) 

First, we need to get the cost of retail ratio. the formula is 
 Cost to Retail ratio= Cost/ Retail
           261,000
CRR= -------------   =   0.58
           450,000

                                                              Cost             Retail
Cost of Goods Available for Sale    $261,000        $450,000
- Sales                                                                        $200,000
                                                                                  ------------------
Ending Inventory                                                        $250,000
x Cost to Retail Ratio                                                           .58
                                                                                  ------------------
