Find closing Stock

Stock(1/1/2002)    -     70,000

Purchases(1/1/02 - 30/6/02)    -6,00,000

sales(1/1/02 - 30/6/02) - 880000

GP ratio for 2001 - 30%

in 2002 cost of purchases and selling prices have increased by 20% and 10% respectively

...............................................................................................................................................................................................

       In my book, Gp @ 30% for 2002 = 222000   

my answer does not match because 30% of 880000 = 264000
