Tower Inc. owns 30% of Yale Co. and applies the equity method. During the current year, Tower bought inventory costing $66,000 and then sold it to Yale for $120,000. At year-end, only $24,000 of merchandise was still being held by Yale. What amount of intra-entity gross profit must be deferred by Tower?

Respuesta :

Answer:

the amount deferred by tower as intra-entity gross profit: 3,240

Explanation:

120,000 sales with a cost of 66,000

remains at year-end:

 24,000 with a cost of:  66,000/120,000 x 24,000 = 13,200

gross profit: 24,000 - 13,200 = 10,800

For this rgoss profit we are going to deferre the 30%;

10,800 x 30% =  3,240
