What Amount in total should be charged too Ahmed statement of p/l for the year ended 28 February 3015 in respect of the above transactionCost 390

Sir, pls also assist with the MCQ below. I got $1,437,600 but the answer says is wrong and I don’t get why. Below is the question:
On 30 April 2014, Algis’s closing inventory was counted and valued at cost of $1.46m. Some items of inventory that had cost $140,000 had been damaged in a fire during March and are not expected to achieve their normal selling price which is calculated by adding a standard mark up of 40%. The sale of these goods will be handled by an agent specializing in fire-damaged goods who is expecting to sell them for 75% of the normal selling price and will charge Algis’s a sales commission of 20%.
At what value will the closing inventory of Algis’s be reported in its statement of financial position as at 30 April, 2014.Sir I know its not my post but I got 1 436 600. is it the right answer?
