    Purchases = $1,137,600

    Explanation:

    Giving the following information:

    Sales = 12,400 units

    Desired ending inventory = 6,400 units

    Beginning inventory = 4,400 suits.

    Purchasing price per unit = $79

    To calculate the total cost, we need to use the following formula:

    Purchases = (sales + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory) * price per unit

    Purchases = (12,400 + 6,400 - 4,400) * 79

    Purchases = 14,400*79

    Purchases = $1,137,600
