Help with question on Manual 2 mock paper

Hiya, I've been working through the Feb 2010 manual 2 paper and I cannot for the life of me work out how they have come up with one of the answers. It's working out a VAT return and what to put in each box. But it's box 7 I'm struggling with....

Total value of purchases and all other inputs excluding any VAT.
Include your box 9 figure

The answer booklet says 10700.00 is the correct answer, but I get 10400.00  (10500-100)

 

This is all the info the question provides...

sales DB - net 30000 vat 4500 gross 34500

sale returns db - net 750 VAT £112.50 Gross £862.50

PDB - net £10500.00 VAT £1575.00 Gross £12075.00

 Purchase Returns Day Book - £100.00  VAT £15.00 Gross £115.00


During the period a bad debt of £345.00 including VAT of £45.00 had been
written off, this debt was 8 months old.

 

 

Any ideas????

Oh dear! Lol. I should read the question more thoroughly! I had read the £345 as a net amount not gross. Silly me....
