Answer:

Cost of merchandise sold is $20,910

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the cost of merchandising we use the following data:

Beginning inventory: $5,000

Purchase: $21,800

Purchase discounts: $790

Ending inventory: $5,100

Sales are not included when we calculate the cost.  

Cost =Beginning inventory+Purchase-discounts-Ending inventory=

Cost=$5,000
+$21,800
-$790-$5,100=$20,910
