Answer: $1000

Explanation:

Hi, the gross margin is equal to the sales revenues minus the cost of the goods sold.

Revenues: inventory sold for $3000

Cost: $2000 Purchase of inventory

So, in this case we have to subtract $2000 (cost) to $3000 (revenue)

Mathematically speaking:

$3000 - $2000 = $1000
