D 175,460

Correct answer is D

To calculate the cost of goods available for sale, we need to add the purchases, returns inwards, and carriage inwards to the opening stock.

 

The given information states:

 

Purchases: D160,000

Returns inwards: D620

Carriage inwards: D740

Opening stock: D14,100

 

To calculate the cost of goods available for sale, we add these amounts:

 

D160,000 + D620 + D740 + D14,100 = D175,460

 

Therefore, the cost of goods available for sale is D175,460.
