Respuesta :

Answer:

the amount of unrealized intra-entity inventory profit is $1,600

Explanation:

The computation of the amount of unrealized intra-entity inventory profit is given below:

= Profit percentage × amount at year end × purchase percentage

= (($75,000 - $55,000) ÷ $75,000) × 15,000 × 40%

= $1,600

hence, the amount of unrealized intra-entity inventory profit is $1,600
